Trying to combine 2 strings, apparently you can have up to 15 characters in the alpha register, i seem to be able to put more (not the storage reg., only 6 in there.) What I want to do is append the 2nd string to the 1st string. I know the append function is that sideways "T" but it doesn't work in this case.
Here's my program,
01 LBL "TEST"
02 "<="
03 ARCL 10
04 "D="
05 ARCL 11
06 AVIEW
07 END
I would like the end result in the alpha register to be... <=90.0000D=10.0000
Any help thanx Shawn,,,,MeisterEister@aol.com

If I recall correctly, an extra "enter" at the beginning of the string will enable the append mode.

It works OK for me. Typed in your prog, but before each line with alpha code, I typed (Shift) ALPHA ENTER, then the text. This gave a line like this, for example:
04 |-"D="
The bar-hyphen was a single char; a T on its side as you described it. Replacing all alpha lines in this way gave exactly the output you wanted.

Try this:
01 LBL "TEST"
02 "<="
03 ARCL 10
04 |-" D=" (the |- symbol is entered by pressing [ENTER] in ALPHA mode, as Andrés mentioned)
05 ARCL 11
06 AVIEW
07 END
This should work. Unless you are trying to place D=value in the lower line; if so, you'll need the Line Feed (LF) character, available at ALPHA, PUNC, down-arrow, last-softkey. Your program would look like this:
01 LBL "TEST"
02 "<="
03 ARCL 10
04 |-"LF D=" (the LF symbol is one-character wide)
05 ARCL 11
06 AVIEW
07 END
Forgive-me if this is not what you want, but it may be helpfull one day.
Cheers.
