Posted on by Community Member

Hi all,

Please Find my code below where I am trying to Insert a value into the table Field.

I am trying to concatenate StringEdit Control with "139" using (+) Operator, when I compiile it is not showing me any error but it is not getting combined .

kAcc.AccountNum = HeaderTitle.valueStr()+"139";

For EX :

If AccountNum is (000379_) then I want it to get concatenated with "139"

So that the AccountNum could become as ( 000379_139)

Please help,

regards ,

Nishath Salman

Hi Nishath,

What is the exact current behavior? Is it returning only the StringEdit control or something else?

You can try to use the strFmt() function like:

kAcc.AccountNum = strFmt("%1%2",HeaderTitle.valueStr(),"139");

Hi Andre ,

Thank You For Replying.

I have used what you have suggested but still it's not working.

Lets say My string Control ("HeaderTitle.valueStr()" is having value (000378_) )

when I compile ( kAcc.AccountNum = strFmt("%1%2",HeaderTitle.valueStr(),"139"); )

I want the AccountNum to be concatenated as ( 000378_139 ) .

Now when I tried using what you just have suggested , still it is throwing just ( 000378_) .

"139" is not getting concatenated.

Be careful with the length of AccountNum, if you try to concatenate more than length of accountnum this will be truncate.

I have done a simple test, but your initial method and my suggestion should work. Can you share the complete code of this method? Possibly somewhere a value might be reset/overwritten.
