Re: To trim or not to trim?

Charles/Kurt/Buck,

I was able to get it to work. Basically I think it was a hybrid of all
the solutions. Here's the code:

wmctl# = %trim(%char(plretailer)) + '-' + %trim(plregister:'0 ') + '-' +
%trim(%char(pltransnum));

I think what was throwing me was the fact that I was at one point running
it with the "pltransnum" field not on there, because I wasn't seeing the
third field with it in the code, so I started working backward, eliminating
things to see what it would do. So at one point the statement ended with
appending the second dash, and I wasn't seeing the second dash. So
that's what got me wondering. Anyway, it's working now. Thanks for the
help guys!!
