Dear All,
How do I turn a 5 by 2 data set into a single string?
The data set looks like this:
A B C D E
P Q R S T
the final result should be
"A B C D E P Q R S T"

Hi wessel,
just in case your problem has meanwhile not been solved, this process should do the trick.
By rotating the dataset and re-executing your "merge"-loop the single string appears.
