All

        Im need to concatenate my log_date and log_time field (the 2 physical records into one logical record).  I can find how to do it with a fixed length file but my case is a delimited file. Looking at the docs, it seems the continueif is used for delimited dtaa, I cant seem to get the syntax to work

any ideas would be welcome ;-)
thanks!
Bob
