SAVE.LABELS.AS Example Creates Labels with No Spaces in Q+E

SUMMARY

The example on page 109 of the "Q+E for Microsoft Excel's User's Guide" for version 3.0 shows the SAVE.LABELS.AS function with the field names concatenated. When using this example, the output label will concatenate the fields without a space between the first and last names and between the state and zip code fields.

MORE INFORMATION

The example on page 108-109 shows: 

   SAVE.LABELS.AS('ADDR.LAB','FIRST_NAME+LAST_NAME;CITY+'',''
   +STATE+ZIP',5,1,0,0,0)
The first name and the last name fields, as well as the state and zip code fields are joined so that the output label concatenates these fields without a space between them.

A correct example should read: 

   SAVE.LABELS.AS('ADDR.LAB','FIRST_NAME+'' ''+LAST_NAME;CITY+'',''
   +STATE+'' ''+ZIP',5,1,0,0,0)
The quotation marks between the fields are single quotation marks (two set on each side of the space) and will add a space between the joined fields.
