Concatenate (x & y) and Concatenate
(x + y) are synonymous if both operands x and y are Strings.
Usage
x + y
Concatenates (combines) string x to
string y to make one contiguous string.
Examples
"Bread" + " and " + "butter"
Returns "Bread and butter".
"Your customer number is " + ({customer.CUSTOMER ID}) + " and your company contact person is " + ({customer.CONTACT FIRST NAME}) + "."
Returns "Your customer number is 64 and
your company contact person is Bob." Where CustomerID="64" and First Name =
"Bob".
Comments
You can use this operator only if
all the elements you are connecting are strings.
If you want to include a value from
a numeric field (for example, an account balance), you must first convert that
value to a text string using the ToText function:
"Your account balance is " + ToText({file.BALANCE}) + "."
