Hi Laurent,

I encountered the same limitation when I tried something alike.

I finally solved it using 'concat' in one unique %expression :

(org-agenda-prefix-format
  "%((concat (or (org-entry-get (point) \"Case\" t) \"\") \" \"
             (or (org-entry-get (point) \"CaseNum\" t) \"\") \" \"
             (or (org-entry-get (point) \"FiscalYear\" t) \"\") \" \"))")

For better readability in the agenda, or more complex expressions, I
thought I could write an entire function for handling them, but I never
dit.

Well, I hope you'll be able to get something from this direction :-)

Once it's perfectly aimed, the flying arrow goes straight to its target.
Thus, don't worry when things go right.
There will be enough time to worry about if they go wrong.
Then, it's time to fire a new arrow towards another direction.
Don't sink.  Adapt yourself !  The archer has to shoot accurately and quickly.
