Hmmm, have you tried this::?:

press the space bar :!:

From the Menu Bar in the Editor, select Edit, and put a check mark next to "Show All Characters" you will then see the space character.

If doing Send> just type the Space Bar as normal. :D

Good luck.....

The following information is directly from the built in Help section.
Start with Help and go through all of the commands. It is really well done and has examples for almost all commands.
===============================

GetDate>result

Returns the current date in the specified variable. The format of the date depends on the regional settings of the system.

Abbreviation : GDT
See also : GetTime, Year, Month, Day, FileDate

Example

GetDate>date
Let>msg=The Date Is :
ConCat>msg,date
Message>msg
=========================
Again, use the Help command. Best place to start.

In the Editor, Click on Help on the Menu Bar. Click on Command Reference.

Again, good luck.......
