I think you use 4 Quotes...one to start the string...two to represent a
single quote within the quoted text...and a 4th to close the text string

"'Manager*' = " + """" + $col_MgrName + """"

Subject: Re: HELP - Building EXTERNAL table qual using table loop


** I believe you need to include three sets of quotes for each one:

"'sddsdsdsd' = """ + $Status$ + """"

Also, you may need to store the column data in display only fields and then
use them in your qualification. I remember having an issue where I was
referring to the column and the table looping would not work. Switched to
using display only fields and it worked.

So I need to build an EXTERNAL qualification using a table loop.  When the
user opens a form there is a hidden table that looks to another form to
determine associations.  The table loop builds a list of these associates
into a qualification (i.e. ['Manager*' = $col_MgrName$ OR 'Manager* =
$col_MgrName$...] etc) and sets a field with this value.  The EXTRNAL qual
on the table then grabs this field.  The problem is I can't get double
quotes around the column value.  So I end up with 'Manager*' = Steve
Smith...and of course without the double quotes the qualification fails.
 
Can someone tell me what I'm missing?

I have tried:
 
"'Manager*' = " + $col_MgrName

"'Manager*' = " + """ +  $col_MgrName + """

"'Manager*' = " + """"" + $col_MgrName + """""
 
Thanks in advance!
