I've seen this before and }used it before (or something like it) and do not recall the exact syntax. }The original question I still cannot find a solution..... The 5.0x Engines support the || operator as string concatenation. SELECT Owner || "." || TabName FROM SysTables; Of course, the owner string is not clipped before the concatenation takes place.
