Let Problem

What is wrong with the following:

Day>the_day
Month>the_month
Year>the_year
let>date=the_day+"-"+the_month+"-"+the_year

"date" is not created.

it should contain

2006-10-12 or as the date maybe.

Just do this:

Let>date=%the_day%-%the_month%-%the_year%

Or if you prefer the traditional way do:

Let>date={%the_day%+"-"+%the_month%+"-"+%the_year%}

Coudn't you also use;

Day>the_day
Month>the_month
Year>the_year
concat>%the_day% %the_month% %the_year%
message>the_day

No, because that's not how ConCat works. ConCat concatinates two variables and requires a comma separating them.

ConCat>string1,string2

It is largely superseded by the ability to embed variables in % symbols or use complex expressions. But is there for backwards compatibility reasons.
