concat issue

Hi,

I want to concat using Concat aggregate function.

I have following values in a field which contains spaces.. like

CustName

John A

Mac borr

Shri Manik

..

..

I am struggling to create a string like 'John A','Mac borr','Shri Manik' 

I am using concat(CustName,',') which gives  ( John A,Mac borr,Shri Manik, ... ) I dont understand how do I put Quotes in that string..

Any help please..

Hi,

Use:  concat(chr(39) & CustName & chr(39),',')

Thanks Qlik_techie,

It works, can I put one more question, I am trying to use this to compare with existing string using Match.

like,

Match( 'Shri Manik', 'John A', 'Mac borr', 'Shri Manik')  should give me 3 as o/p.

but when I use above as

match( 'Shri Malik', concat(chr(39)&CustName&chr(39),',') )

This returns me 0 always.. How can I use it to find value in string..??

Instead of using : Match( 'Shri Manik', 'John A', 'Mac borr', 'Shri Manik')  to get the o/p 3 corresponding to the CustName.

Load only CustName using separate load & use =FieldIndex('CustName','Shri Manik') to get 3.

Let me know if this helps

Regards
