Hi, I'm concatenating 5 variables in only one string variable that has a lenght of 40-50 characters, but SAS displays only the 2 first variables. How could I do to see all the lenght?

This is my code:

data work.cf_vcv2;

set work.cf_vcv1;

cross=cats(tiporden,isin,tim,dat,precioneg);

run;

the output only show tiporden and isin concatenated.:smileyconfused:

Set the length of the variable before creation.

set work.cf_vcv1;

length cross $50.;

format cross $50.;

cross=cats(tiporden,isin,tim,dat,precioneg);

run;
