Hi David,
Not sure if I got your question correctly – this sounds more to do with string concatenation rather than the REQUEST itself. & operator in GDL is a Boolean operator; + is the operator you are looking for:
n1 = REQUEST("ID_of_main", "", IDTextA)
n2 = REQUEST("Full_ID_of_parent", "", IDTextB)
if n1 and n2 then
IDText = IDTextB + IDTextA
else
print "Something went wrong"
endifI am not sure if REQUEST will give an Integer if IDTextA turns out to be all numbers, in which case you might need to do a VARTYPE then str(“%.0”, IDTextA) before concatenating.
I also want to point out that if you put these REQUESTS in the Master Script, they will produce a numerical “0” if GLOB_SCRIPT_TYPE is Parameter Script. If you then try to + two 0s together obviously you will get a 0. If your confusion comes from seeing 0s as your script result, may be that’s the reason.
kind regards,
