Subject Extrange behavior concatenating fields
Author Elkins Villalona
Hello everyone.

I've a table with FIELD_1 and FIELD_2

With two records



FIELD_1 FIELD_2

1111111111 JHON DOE

JANE DOE

When I try to concatenate those fields in a query like this

SELECT FIELD_1||FIELD_2 FROM TEST_TABLE



I just get one record

11111111111JHON DOE



And if try to concatenate those fields using a different approach like this



SELECT CASE WHEN FIELD_1 IS NULL THEN ' '||FIELD_2 ELSE
FIELD_1||FIELD_2 END FROM TEST_TABLE

The query returns no spaces to the left of the concatenated fields



11111111111JHON DOE

JANE DOE



And I'd like to have a result with spaces filling the field_1 when null



Any help will be appreciated
