Subject:      automatically concatenate one string with many variables
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Hello everybody,



I'm trying to concatenate one string variable with let's say with 100 other
numerical variables.



My data looks like this:



STRING                N1                          N2
N3          ...                       N100

AAAA                   100                        345
456                                        502

AAAB                    056                        101
159                                        312

...



The resulting data should have this format



STRING                C1                          C2
C3           ...                         C100

AAAA                   AAAA100            AAAA345            AAAA456
AAAA502

AAAB                    AAAB056             AAAB101             AAAB159
AAAB312

...



I know that I can use concat(var1,var2,.) but I don't know how to use it in
combination with a loop.



Thanks in advance.



Bye, Lucas
