Help
I'm using an 'across' verb and trying to get the
headers to line up over the columns. I am unable to
get an exact lineup. I have tried using a define
and concatenate operation..ie.
fyyr/a8 = ' ' || fy || fq || ' '
where fyyr is used as:
across fyyr
but focus suppresses the leading 2 blanks.
how do I force the blanks to print?
or any other ideas?
thanks

My first impression would be to take out one of the '|'
symbols in your definition. || is a 'hard concatenate'
and will remove extra spaces. It should work with just
one. Same goes for the one at the end of your expression.
