Hello Caitlin, Abraham is correct – Oasis montaj and Target do not have any tools which allow you to concatenate the contents of two channels into a single new channel. His workaround is a good one and what Geosoft Support usually ends up recommending.
I do however have some good news. We are currently working on adding something similar to Excel’s concatenate function into our Channel Math Expression Builder. I can’t promise anything at the moment but we are hoping to have it ready for the next major release of Oasis montaj and Target.

I did not want to have to export but I guess that is what I will do. This seems like a very basic function that should be included. Dang. Thanks for your response!

In Geosoft I had Line not in the data (due to the above error) and a Marker field that was 0 to 7000. In the end I wanted to concatenate Line and Marker to look like this Line_Marker A10C_00001 A10C_00500 A10C_06500 B02C_00010 etc..... To work around this I exported a CSV with line names as data, brought the data into MS access and concatenated using a query. The query SQL syntax is below. SELECT Table.*, [Table]![Line] & Format([Table]![Marker],"00000") AS Line_Marker FROM Table; Then I brought it all back to Geosoft, as this was just one step in larger workflow to assign positions to JPGs.

I have a line channel and a station channel, I want a new channel to be Line_Station, like 23_100. I cannot find the syntax to do this.
