Glad to hear it.

Tommy's response to this is the method I usually use.  Just seems easier
than looking up the continuation rules.

But if I'm understanding the rules correctly, then 

HdrString = 'INSERT Into ' + %trim(Library) + '/' + %trim(HdrFile) +   
            'Values(?,?,?, +
              ?,?)';

Should work just fine.

(from the manual):
 * The first use of '+' in this example is the concatenation 
 * operator. The second use is the character literal continuation. 
C      EVAL     ERRMSG = NAME + 
C               ' was not found + 
C               in the file.'

Note, a plus (+) indicates continuation with the first non-blank
character in or past the first position in the continued field.
So you don't get any extra spaces.

However, just an FYI but SQL would not have cared about the extra white
space anyways.


HTH,

Subject: Re: PREPARE Statement Problem

Something was, indeed, wrong with the PREPARE statement.  Or more 
precisely its placement.

Just seems that, since it's part of a quoted string, there's 
no way to 
do the continuation with a '+' as it would think that (and 
the blanks) 
were part of the quote.
