This is normally used for field values that span multiple lines in the e-mail, but it might also work to escape the > and < characters. The Summary line would need to be formatted as follows in the incoming e-mail: Summary !8! : [$$Modify FIXNDAOTHERCD7 program to Bybass ND-OTHER-CD-7 field > 90 and change Field if < 4 to 0$$] If you decide to try this, please let us know if it works! HTH, Thomas ----- Original Message ----- From: Wheeler, Dylan <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Newsgroups: gmane.comp.crm.arsystem.general To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, February 22, 2008 5:26 PM Subject: Incoming email that generates record needs escape character? ** Hi all, I'm having a problem with some characters. We get emails from another system on our network that we dump to a working form then generate CHG requests. I ran into the problem today when the summary field had the < and > characters in it. Is there an escape character I can have the other system developer use to tell Remedy it's just field data and not a command variable? I had them remove the < and > and the request went through, so I know that's the problem. Here is the email that failed. Anything after the summary field was disregarded and an email was sent back saying that required fields were empty.
