Are you able to check all settings under configuration option?

RBGXE > Main Menu > Settings > Configuration Settings ...

Are you able to change and then save R:BASE Configuration Settings?

There is always a reason, and NEVER give up on what you really want to do.

The keyboard is US standard layout. % prints as it did in my original message, it just isn’t being treated as a wild card by RBGXE. I just checked the settings in parallels, and the keyboard is US mapped to the Mac. %%%% < it types just fine, but isn’t a wild card to R:Base. I give up.

Albert,

Just a thought:

When I worked in different countries in Europe, national keyboards were often the problem when some characters went "astray". Often the answer was to use the key in the position of the UK or perhaps more often the US keyboard position.

I know nothing about Macs but if the keyboard layout is different is the right letter being transmitted through the Parallels interface? If the asterisk is in a different place you could try using the key that it "should" be.

Regards,
Alastair.

All the character settings are correct. The wild card just doesn’t work.

Albert,

On your CONNected database, check the database CHARacter settings.

SHOW CHAR

R>SHOW CHAR
BLANK
DELIMIT     ,
LINEEND     ^
SEMI        ;
QUOTES      '
PLUS        +
SINGLE      _
MANY        %
IDQUOTES    `

In your case, what is the character setting (symbol) for MANY?

That should provide you with some blue's clues ...

BTW, aging (getting old) makes person wiser and experienced, and
not the other way around, and shall not constitute a complicated
life for R:BASE users.

Very Best R:egards,

I'm working on my new MacBook Air, running Windows 7 Pro under Parallels 12. Commands fail, although the information is there.

LIST Contact% — shows nothing. There are 7 tables starting with Connntact in the name in the database
LIST TABLE Contact% — still nothing

LIST COLUMNS Contact% — still nothing

This is not a fatal error by any means, but it makes life a bit more complicated.
