How to add space before a string a variable.

Hi,
If i have a string variable ' 80 '.I want it as ' 80 ' ie some space appended before it.
I used concatenate ' ' variable into variable..Its not working.How to do it??
Thanks.

check below code
Concatenate ' ' string into string respecting blanks.
<b>
... RESPECTING BLANKS</b>
Effect
The addition RESPECTING BLANKS is only allowed during string processing and causes the closing spaces for data objects dobj1 dobj2 ... or rows in the internal table itab to be taken into account. Without the addon, this is only the case with string.
Note
With addition RESPECTING BLANKS, statement CONCATENATE can be used in order to assign any character strings EX>text - taking into account the closing empty character - to target str of type string: CLEAR str. CONCATENATE str text INTO str RESPECTING BLANKS.
Example
After the first CONCATENATE statement, result contains "When_the_music_is_over", after the second statement it contains "When______the_______music_____is________ over______" . The underscores here represent blank characters.
TYPES text   TYPE c LENGTH 10.
DATA itab   TYPE TABLE OF text.
DATA result TYPE string.
APPEND 'When' TO itab.
APPEND 'the'   TO itab.
APPEND 'music' TO itab.
APPEND 'is'    TO itab.
APPEND 'over' TO itab.
CONCATENATE LINES OF itab INTO result SEPARATED BY space.
CONCATENATE LINES OF itab INTO result RESPECTING BLANKS.

How to increase space before a Heading

Hi, Three things are really getting to me in Pages 9.
1. Can I a dotted line in the TOC for each line item. e.g.
Heading 1.................2
Heading 2..............3
Heading 2..............4
2. How do I add space before the style at the top of the page. eg.
--- top of page ----
[space
of
lets
say 5 cm]
Heading 1
I can add the space IF I add an empty paragraph as the first line and add a value to "before paragraph' text inspector.
3. Can I create a TOC which will display the headings I have in the floating text boxes?
thanks in advance

Hi stnsw,

The dotted line running from the text to the next tab stop is called a 'leader.'
A look at the article_Setting Tab Stops to Align Text_ in Chapter 5, Working with Text in the Pages '09 User Guide will explain how to set leaders to tab stops. The article starts on p. 91
Short answer: use the Tab section of the Text Inspector.
2. How do I add space before the style at the top of the page. eg.
Several ways.
• An inserted shape, either floating and set to cause wrap using the button that prevents text to the right and left of the object, or inline, and set in a paragraph of its own above the first 'real' text on the page. The object may be white, transparent, or set to any colour with opacity set to zero.
• Type a return character before the first text on the page. Select the return and set the font size to 144 points (two inches) Adjust the size to taste using command-+ (larger) and command- - (smaller).
• Use the Inspector to set the space before the first paragraph, as you described.
I can add the space IF I add an empty paragraph as the first line and add a value to "before paragraph' text inspector.
3. Can I create a TOC which will display the headings I have in the floating text boxes?
Not using the TOC tools in Pages.

How to add '%' to a query with bind variables

Hi,
I am using oracle jdeveloper 11g.
I am trying to create a table to display rows using the below query in a jspx page,

I will be passing p_QAEngineer using binding variable using 'ExecuteWithParams' using a dropdown(eg: 'rkumara'). But I need to add a '%' to this value as I am using a 'LIKE' clause in my query.
I tried using,
select * from ade_txns where series= :p_series and transaction like :p_QAEngineer+'%'
But this is not working for me.
Can someone please tell me how i can solve this.

How to add spaces at the end of record

but i would like to add space at the end of each record till 135 length.
Can you please help me how to add speace at the end of record.

So why did you said that in your first posting? My glass sphere is out for cleaning...
Instead of type c use strings and add spaces until they have the appropriate length.
loop at outtab assigning <pout>.
while strlen( <pout>-val ) < 135.
concatenate <pout>-val `` into <pout>-val.
endwhile.
endloop.

I try but fail.

You would have to write code that does that, then. Right now your code writes that part of your XML as elements that aren't in a namespace. I can tell you know there are different methods to write elements that are in a namespace because you used a different method to try to write an attribute that is in a namespace.

How much free space before updating iPad to 5?

I have an original, 64gb iPad One.
from what I am reading here, free disc space seems to be important before doing the upgrade.
how much free space do those of who have updated suggest, BOTH on then iPad, and on
my PC hard drive?
Not looking forward to a bricked-install

The more stuff you got, the longer the whole update will take...increasing the chances something might not go smoothly.
So delete movies/videos first as they take up the most space. You can copy them back later. It's worth the small hassle imo.

How to add space between two tabs in accodion widget?

Hi! I am using the accordion widgets and trying to add space between each of the tabs, would someone help me on this. Thanks

Directly editing the output of Muse is virtually always a bad idea. At a minimum it will create a very cumbersome workflow since Muse will overwrite your changes every time you re-export (export, upload, publish, preview).
It depends on exactly what visual effect you want to achieve, but you probably just need to select the accordion widget and use the Spacing panel to adjust the vertical gutter value.

How to add a field in the step Variables

Hi guys, how to add a Field array to the Step Variables?

Do you mean how to add properties to a Step Type?
Steps are instances of Step Types so you can not add properties. If you need to add property to say a Numeric Test Limit step type, then you have to create a Custom Step Type based on a Numeric Test Limit Step Type then add your additional properties. Check out the TestStand documentation for Custom Steps Type.
Depending on your needs you might beable to use the Add Attributes to meet your requirements, depends on what TestStand version you are using. This could save you the bother of having to create your own step type.

len(state+SPACE(35-len(state)))
FROM dbo.ordersInfo
Thank you in advance

Fixed length CHAR(n) data in SQL is automatically padded with spaces. Either change the column's data type or cast to it. Also, the ISO-11179 rules are that the column should be "state_name" and not just the root attribute "state" -- state_code, state_population,
etc are a few of the confusions you created.
Another rule of RDBMS is that we do not do display formatting in the data. That is what presentation layers do. Why are you trying to fake COBOL in SQL?

Fastest way to add spaces to a String?

I need to have strings with a fixed width containing variable length text. The following (working) code does this with stupid if() and for() statements:
        StringBuffer levelName = new StringBuffer(record.getLevel().getName());
        if (levelName.length() < LEVEL_WIDTH) {
            int g = LEVEL_WIDTH - levelName.length();
            for (int i = 0; i < g; i++) {
                levelName.append(' ');
        sb.append(levelName); As this code is called a lot of time, i'm looking for a more efficient way to expand strings to a fixed width (by adding spaces). is there a better performing solution?

In this simple padding situation, there's no real advantage to using a StringBuffer over just a char array:
//(1) do this once:
char[] spaces = new char[LEVEL_WIDTH];
char[] buffer = new char[LEVEL_WIDTH];
java.util.Arrays.fill(spaces, ' ');
//(2) Do this whenever you pad:
int len = yourString.length();
if (len < LEVEL_WIDTH) {
    System.arraycopy(yourString, 0, buffer, 0, len);
    System.arraycopy(spaces, 0, buffer, len, LEVEL_WIDTH-len);
    yourString = new String(buffer); //(*)
}Notes:
1. First off, it should be noted that trying to optimize before profiling could be a waste of time: what if the next operation is a database query that takes 100,000 times are long as this?
2. arraycopy is a native op, so it should run faster than a loop. Arrays.fill calls arraycopy, btw.
3. For efficiency, I reuse arrays buffer and spaces.
4. The char array is copied in line (*). It would be nice to avoid that copying: to copy the original string and append padding directly into the strings buffer, but I don't see how that's possible. Using a StringBuffer involves at least as much copying, as far as I can tell (he says, staring at the source code)...

Add space in the string

Hi
I have a varchar column, the data in the column have no space in between. I want to keep space after every 20 characters while I select data from this column, how can I acheive this.

If so, try this:
DECLARE @longStrings TABLE (string VARCHAR(MAX))
INSERT INTO @longStrings (string) VALUES

How to add chars to a String

Hi,
I want to construct a string by adding characters to it.
How can I do this ?

Never mind, yes it will work (except that you have to
initialize the string first, like s = "something";)
before using +=. Sorry.actually, you don't. s += "foo" is really shorthand for s = s + "foo".
since the reference s is equal to null, the value null is converted to the String "null".
therefore, String s = null;
s += "foo";has the same effect as
String s = "null" + "foo";so, strictly speaking, you don't have to initialize s to a non-null value, but if you don't, you're not going to get anything you'd like...
and, StringBuffer is definitely the way to go here; otherwise, each time you concatenate a character to your String, you're creating a new Character object and a new String object.

How to add newline into a string

I need to define a string which contains a newline,
what i did is :
String newline = new String();
newline = "\n";
but when i add new line to other string, and print it out,
seems it is not working....
Anrybody knows why?
thanks~

Please keep in mind that newlines differ between platforms. The "\n" is very well known, however in the Windows world a newline is actually "\r\n". Thankfully you may retrieve this value from the JVM.
String newline = System.getProperty("line.seperator");Also System.out.println() will automatically append the correct newline at the end.
Meaning that
System.out.println("Hello");
System.out.print("Hello" + newline);are esentially the same.

How to add elements into java string array?

I open a file and want to put the contents in a string array. I tried as below.
String[] names;
s = new Scanner(new BufferedReader(new FileReader("outfile.txt")));
while (s.hasNext()) {
                String item = s.next();
                item.trim();
                email = item;
                names = email;
            }But I know that this is a wrong way of adding elements into my string array names []. How do I do it? Thanks.

Actually you cannot increase the size of a String array. But you can create a temp array with the lengt = lengthofarray+1 and use arraycopy method to copy all elements to new array, then you can assign the value of string at the end of the temp array
I would use this one:
String [] sArray = null;
s = new Scanner(new BufferedReader(new FileReader("outfile.txt")));
while (s.hasNext()) {
    String item = s.next();
    item.trim();
    email = item;
    sArray = addToStringArray(sArray, email);
* Method for increasing the size of a String Array with the given string.
* Given string will be added at the end of the String array.
* @param sArray String array to be increased. If null, an array will be returned with one element: String s
* @param s String to be added to the end of the array. If null, sArray will be returned.(No change)
* @return sArray increased with String s
public String[] addToStringArray (String[] sArray, String s){
     if (sArray == null){
          if (s!= null){
               String[] temp = {s};
               return temp;
          }else{
               return null;
     }else{
          if (s!= null){
               String[] temp = new String[sArray.length+1];
               System.arraycopy(sArray,0,temp,0,sArray.length);
               temp[temp.length-1] = s;
               return temp;
          }else{
               return sArray;
