I need to concatenate two varaibles is dataset. two variables are dose and doseu.

for example:

dose doseu

20 ml

I want to create one variable by combining these two. And expecting the result like below. I need to add parentheses to the second variable.

newvariable

20 (ml).

Thanks

Rashmi.

One variation:

newvariable = catx( ' (', dose, doseu) || ')' ;
