Hello,

I have a variable with numeric values and want to add a character to them.

For example, let's say my variable looks like this:

Var1
-----------
010
020
040
------------

I want to create Var2 that looks like this:

Var1     Var2
-------------------
010       A010
020       A020
040       A040
-------------------

Do you have any suggestions how to write do file commands?

Thanks in advance.
