Okay I managed to get a few minutes while the wife and mother-in-law go shopping. This problem is nagging at me in back of my head so I jump on the wife's computer and dial-up (It hurts us, it hurts us)
. So therefore I have No Acad and no lisp to try things.
Okay so here goes on further explaining "Nothing"
Let say I have 5 toggles and they all stand for consultants names. My condition statement assigns initials for the consultants names for each of the toggles. Lets say the user checks 3 out of the 5. For the 2 that were not selected i am getting nil or zero. (the variable watch told me so) right what is happening I strcat the all the "name1 thru name5 variables i getting the 0 and/or nil in the return of the variable ConNames
for example
(setq ConNames (strcat name1 name2 name3 name4 name5))
and if tog1, tog2 & tog4 was selected
I am getting a return for the variable conNames =
name1nam200name40.
I don't want zeros. I want to remove them and squeeze the string together so the desired return for ConName variable would be =
name1name2name4I hope this helps. See you Monday.
Thanks for your help.
