Hi All, This may be my own stupidity but why does this happen: * Version 3.03/04 2 May 2002 * * * * You are welcome to visit our Web site * * http://root.cern.ch * * * ******************************************* Compiled for linux with thread support. CINT/ROOT C/C++ Interpreter version 5.15.35, Mar 25 2002 Type ? for help. Commands must be C++ statements. Enclose multiple statements between { }. //----- Prints bob smith root [0] cout << Form("%s %s", "bob", "smith") << endl; <----- Prints bob smith bob smith //----- Only prints bob root [1] cout << Form("%s %s", TString("bob"), TString("smith")) << endl; bob //----- Prints bob smith root [2] Printf("%s %s\n", "bob", "smith"); bob smith //----- Only prints bob root [3] Printf("%s %s\n", TString("bob"), TString("smith")); <----- Only prints bob bob root [4] I was encoutering this whilst creating sql strings from TString variables (ie TString sql = Form("SELECT * FROM %s WHERE blah = '%s", tstring_var1, tstring_var2); ) Is there something I'm missing? Thanks :-) Ashley Cambrell
