Hi,

I want to concatenate the below 2 strings.


05 OUT-TEXT PIC X(550).
05 IN-TEXT.
10 IN-TEXT1 PIC X(200) VALUE
"CH3 3FG GREAT MILLS DIY SUPERSTORE,TARVINON ROAD".
10 IN-TEXT2 PIC X(350) VALUE
"SECTOR-58,UK".

Please let me know how to use Delimited By so that i get output as
"CH3 3FG GREAT MILLS DIY SUPERSTORE,TARVINON ROAD SECTOR-58,UK"

Thanks a lot!!
Richie

Hi richie....

Try this simple STRING statement.... It should do what you are looking for.....

Code:
STRING STRING1 DELIMITED BY "  "
       " "                     
       STRING2 DELIMITED BY "  "
       INTO OUTSTR.             


It delimits input strings on two consecutive SPACES. That can be changed as per your requirement.

Regards,

Priyesh.
