Oh oh. I misunderstood the question. that's what I get for rushing. I thought you meant the file. mmm. interesting bug. I am not sure, just my opinion, but I do not think Lew is likely to release any new updates, so thank you for alerting us to this bug.
Bye Brian _____ From: Bob DeRosier [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, 22 June 2012 12:02 AM To: Brian Hancock Subject: RE: [Dataperf] Too long Report Names are allowed I was referring to the name of the DP report, not the name of the file created, so I don't know how to interpret your question of a report variable or create/append to file. If you look in the STE file, they will show as a line starting with NAME:~ You can check it for yourself - take a copy of an existing report, then edit it add enough characters to extend the name of the report beyond the right hand edge of the field and save the report.

I thought it always check it when you entered it interactively. of course its a different problem when you do it in run time code Anyway thanks for the heads up. Brian _____ From: [email protected] [ <mailto:[email protected]> mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bob DeRosier Sent: Thursday, 21 June 2012 2:50 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Dataperf] Too long Report Names are allowed I stumbled across this today. DataPerfect allowed me to create report names that were too long. When I tried to access them, it threw me out of dataperfect with the following error: Faulting application ntvdm.exe, version 5.1.2600.5512, faulting module kernel32.dll, version 5.1.2600.5781, fault address 0x00012afb. Obviously, I went in and changed the names to a size that would fit. (export the report, edit the name, import it back and put it in the proper sequence). Somehow, it seems the program shouldn't let me do things like that. Anyway, I hope this helps somebody else some time. Bob
