I don't know the exact answer, but the compiler probably sees 'State = ' '' as either a true or false logical value. And if state = ' ' is false then the entire value results as a blank?

Subject: Two '=' On A Single Line
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?
