your initial and second post are opposite! ... be sure to understand the
row/column system used in IDL (see
http://idlastro.gsfc.nasa.gov/idl_html_help/Columns_Rows_and _Array_Majority.html
)
Anyways, you can do concatenation, according to your 2nd post like that:
a = [[1,3],[2,4]]
a= [a,transpose([5,6])]
IDL> print,a
1 3 5
2 4 6
