Appending Numbers to Strings in IDL [message #48991]

Hi everyone,

I'm new to IDL, and have only been using it for two weeks. I bought
Liam Gumley's book and it has been quite helpful so far. The program
I'm writing requires me to identify different objects within an image.
Since there may be more than one, I append a variable number to the end
of the file name string to differentiate between objects.

I know that you can append numbers to a string like this:
string+string(variable)

But, that leaves a lot of whitespace in front of the number. Is there
a way to eliminate this whitespace?
I want it to work like this:
string+string(variable)=stringvariable, not string variable

Thanks a lot for your help,

Branch
