As others have said Jerry it is perfectly valid.

Lines(x) should contain city_name,0 or city_name,1 depending on whether state contains blanks or not.

It seems odd if it really did contain all blanks.

I hope the eye surgery went well and that you're back to normal soon.

Boy, was I having a bad day today. Must be a result of the recent eye
surgery, but that's a lame excuse.

Anyway, I got everything working in the new SQLRPGLE program, but one thing
is still puzzling me. That is, I would have thought would have thrown a
compile error.

Lines(x) = %trim(city) + ', ' + state = ' ';

The end result was that the Line(x) element resulted in blanks.

I can accuse the surgery for my part because I kept reading the second = as
a +. But why did I not get a compile error?
