  Argument
 
    string1 ... stringn    String expressions
 
  Returns
 
    <string type>          Concatenation of argument strings
 
  Description
 
    The Concat function returns a string composed of string expressions
    passed to the function.
 
    String expressions may be string variables, literal characters (a
    single character delineated by single quotes), or literal strings
    (a sequence of characters delineated by single quotes).
 
    Concat truncates the result if it exceeds 255 characters. If the
    result is assigned to a string variable, the result is truncated to
    the declared length of the variable.
 
    Concat performs the same operation as the plus operator (+). The
    following two statements are equivalent:
 
       result := Concat( string1, string2, string3 );
    or
       result := string1 + string2 + string3;
