1. Create a boolean condition using "Maintain Conditions (tuxch0114m000)" passing the field you want to check.

2. Hit the "Text" button to add the condition code...

if isspace(fieldname) then
return(false)
endif
return(true)

3. Check syntax.

4. Create the import table relations ("Maintain Table Relations (tuxch0121m000)") and put the condition name in the execute condition.

Dear Dirkri

Thanks a lot for the reply, I was able to solve my problem

I am trying to combine two string fields from ascii file into one Baan field while importing with Exchange. Can someone help me out on how to do this?

Thanks

You have to do this with a condition on the field you are filling. When you create the condition, Baan automatically places a argument to the condition equal to the fieldname. To use another field, or two different fields, you have to go to the argument list and add the two other fields. Then they will be available inside the condition.
