Hi Mike,

Do you mean something like

    dcl A *char 10 value('A')
    dcl B *char 20 value('XYZ')
    dcl C *char 30

    chgvar &C (&A *CAT &B)     /* C = 'A         XYZ' */
    chgvar &C (&A *TCAT &B)    /* C = 'AXYZ' */
    chgvar &C (&A *BCAT &B)    /* C = 'A XYZ' */

*TCAT trims then concatenates;
*BCAT trims, then concatentates with 1 intervening blank.

hth,
