Thanks Amanda. After I submitted this question to the list and after a whole day of testing and researching I found out that I needed to surround the entire paragraph between [$$ and $$] . I knew it was something easy like that but I could not find the information quick enough.
I think your solution would also work as well since then it would be a continuation of the paragraph. Since it looks as if the email engine probably reads each line until it reaches an EOL character. Hopefully someone else reading this post will at least now have our solutions documented in this list. Thanks again Steve On 3/9/07, Pierce, Amanda (TBS) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
** Steve, We do the same thing and we experienced the same issue. I got around it by inserting "||" instead of a carriage return in the template. Then I have a filter on submit of the record to the ticket that replaces the "||" with an actual carriage return. *Amanda Pierce* *PDS Client Systems Development* *Technology Services* *Turner Broadcasting System, Inc* * * *From:* Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *On Behalf Of *Steven Pataray *Sent:* Thursday, March 08, 2007 5:00 PM *To:* [email protected] *Subject:* email template and carriage returns ** I just upgraded from ARS 4.03 to ARS 6.3. I've been using asp forms to send the email templates to my remedy email address to my HPD:HelpDesk form with no problems, pretty simple. I'm learned from trial and error that the new engine has the email instructions form and email template form to help process the new template schema. The problem I'm currently having is Carriage returns. When my email templates gets sent I append fields together to form the Description field formatted in an orderly matter. When I want a new line in my asp forms I just use the vbCrLf _ to create a hard return and the continuation line. For some reason when it gets parsed into the Email engine it doesn't know what to do. I read in prior posts that it will not take words like "Name:" in the fields because it'll translate it to a keyword. But I have not read any limitations to carriage returns or how to include it so the engine will like it. Does anyone have any experience with this? I just noticed that my Description field is unlimited (0 input length). Could that be some sort of reason? It's only affecting the Description field.
