Jan, I tested this using 7.1.79.30214. When the first character of the value is a space and the value is the return from the retcol on the choose command, the space is removed. A select which uses only the text value, no return column, correctly keeps the space in the variable.
This is easily replicated in ConComp, so I will work up a demonstration and submit it as a bug. --- Jan Barley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Bob, > Thanks for verifying this.
