RE: Varying .vs. %Trim (Was: Justa note of thanks)

I'm slow, but I get there.  I was thinking the result field was VARYING and
the fields being concatenated were fixed.  Your post makes it obvious that
the fields being concatenated were also VARYING.

Thanks.

The difference is, if I say with a varying field lib:
C       Eval      lib = 'MYLIB'
then lib has the value of 'MYLIB'.

If, I say with a 10 length string:
C       Eval      lib = 'MYLIB'
then lib has the value of 'MYLIB     '
