Hi , Using 4GL , I tried to access an array using subscripts and assign a blank to them , main define var1,ans char(10) define i , j ,k smallint let var1 = "ab" let i = length(var1) for j = i+1 to 10 let var1[j]=" " end for let k=length(var1) prompt k for ans end main K is 2 and not 10 , why ? Is it not possible to assign blank spaces ? TIA sathish
