I have a character field that I define in multiple lines as follows (CODE 1).
lcString = "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" ;
+ "BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB";
+ "CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC";
+ "DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD"
I accidentally typed (CODE 2):
lcString = "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ;
BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB;
CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC;
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD"
which worked! As I was making changes to this code (without realizing that I have an incorrect syntax), I came across an instance where CODE 2 would not work any more. After a little testing, I realized my mistake, but also realized that CODE 2 works, as long as the length of lcString is less than 255 chars.
Is there an explanation to this and was CODE 2 supposed to work?
Thanks,
