Buddy: Much appreciated.
Note: The brackets [ ] aren't part of the variable; they're just there
to segregate code & result strings from commentary.
Here's what I ran:
SET VAR vSYNTAX_Invitation = ('vResult|ADD_TO_MESSAGE_BODY Come to Bill'
+ .vApos + 's Party!')
SET VAR vCompleteCodeLine TEXT = NULL
SET VAR vCompleteCodeLine = ('PLUGIN RMail' & .vApos +
.vSYNTAX_Invitation + .vApos)
.
DEBUG SET VAR vPauseMessage = .vCompleteCodeLine
DEBUG PAUSE 1 USING .vPauseMessage
--
-- Which displays: [ 'vResult|ADD_TO_MESSAGE_BODY Come to Bill's Party!'
] as predicted and desired.
--
&vCompleteCodeLine
.
RMail vResult|SEND
.
**********
The second apostrophe is not present in the sent message; rather,
replaced by a <space>: [ Come to Bill' s Party! ].
I cannot for the life of me see where a <space> would be introduced
after the apostrophe.
Thoughts? Or R:BASE support?
Really appreciate your help and attention.
Bruce

Try building the complete syntax into a variable as such
SET VAR vSYNTAX_Invitation = ('vResult|ADD_TO_MESSAGE_BODY [Come to
Bill' + .vApos + 's Party!]')
SET VAR vCompleteCodeLine TEXT
SET VAR vCompleteCodeLine = ('PLUGIN RMAIL' & .vApos +
.vSYNTAX_Invitation + .vApos)
Now replace line PLUGIN RMAIL .vSYNTAX_Invitation with this
&vCompleteCodeLine

Subject: [RBASE-L] - RMailx Plugin: Apostrophe Anomaly
All:
RBGXE - 10.0.1.20414
RMailX - Latest
Note: [ ] brackets isolate strings of interest from surrounding text.
While testing message construction with the [ SET VAR vApostrophe = ''''
] trick in RMailX, I experience:
An "Invitation" text variable builds correctly: [ Come to Bill's Party!
] with a single apostrophe.
But that text appears in the email as: [ Come to Bill''s Party! ] with a
double apostrophe.
Looping Code (stripped down):
SET VAR vApos TEXT = NULL
SET VAR vSYNTAX_Invitation TEXT = NULL
SET VAR vApos = ''''
.
LABEL Loop0_Enter
.
SET VAR vSYNTAX_Invitation = ('vResult|ADD_TO_MESSAGE_BODY Come to
Bill' + .vApos + 's Party!')
.
DEBUG SET VAR vPauseMessage = .vSYNTAX_Invitation
DEBUG PAUSE 1 USING .vPauseMessage
.
-- vPauseMessage reads: [ Come to Bill's Party! ] with the single
apostrophe.
.
PLUGIN RMail vResult|SHOW LOG
.
PLUGIN RMail .vSYNTAX_Invitation
.
PLUGIN RMail vResult|SEND
.
SET VAR .vSYNTAX_Invitation = NULL
.
GOTO Loop0_Enter
LABEL Loop0_Exit
******************
The variable text appears in the message as: [ Come to Bill''s Party ]
with a double apostrophe.
