  It's not straight forward, but instead of using a T1/A<-Stt, use Set <space>.... 
 Like this:

  Then       Phone:CID Info          Set        Reset
  Then       Phone:CID Info          T1<-Stt    Month
  Then       Phone:CID Info          Set        <Space>
  Then       Phone:CID Info          T1/A<-Stt  Date
  Then       Phone:CID Info          Set        :
  Then       Phone:CID Info          Set        <Space>
  Then       Phone:CID Info          T1/A<-Stt  Current Time
  Then       Phone:CID Info          Set        .
  Then       Phone:CID Info          Set        <Space>
  Then       Phone:CID Info          T1/A<-T1   CID-Name
  Then       Phone:CID Info          Set        .
  Then       Phone:CID Info          Set        <Space>
  Then       Phone:CID Info          T1/A<-T1   CID-Number

  [Note the colons and periods...]

  Hope this is what you're looking for....

    Subject: [ECS] Another simple question that I can't answer on my own!


    My ECS syntax question of the day is:

    How do a append a space to a text item (or for that matter append any other special
character)?

    I am trying to assemble a message in a text item from various other text items.
 I need to insert spaces between the words.  I have tried appending a character item
with a space value.  I seem to get "<space>" rather than an actual space.  When I define
a text item that I want to assign the value of space, I can't seem to pick the right
value to type into the item definition dialog. 

    From the documentation, I can't see a way to assign the value of a character item
to a text item.  I can see how to assign the name of the character item.  I can see
how to assign the name of the value of the character item (this works fine for alphabetics
-- but not for special characters like space).

    Please help.  I know it must be simple.

    Thanks.

    Kevin
