Hi

Should be straigtforward

I just tried

Set v v1 note = ’anytext’

Set v v2 text = .#date

Set v v3 note = (.v1 & .v2)

It seems to work, of course you need to vary a few things pending your construction.

Good luck

Gunnar

Subject: [RBASE-L] - adding text to note field

 

I am trying to come up with a way to have a command file automatically add text to existing text in a note field.

 

The command file would automatically add today's date and a text string based on the particular command file being run.

 

I believe I did something similar years ago with a concantination command of some type but I can't find anything about it in the current "documentation" and I can't find the old code.

 

The group's help has been outstanding in helping this non-programmer in overcoming various small problems in streamlining our office system which controls the dockets, etc.  By the way this system was first originally written in RBase some 15 years ago and has been serving us well with occasional tweaks and improvements ever since.

 

Thanks in advance for your always helpful suggestions.
