I would appreciate some help with the arguments for a Plugin. I am trying to
use the GetFileExt plugin, (PLUGIN GetFileExt vFileExt|vfile) but find that
the only way that I can get this to work is to enclose the filename in
quotes. If I set a variable to the filename and use that I get a null
returned. I tried all possible combinations I could think of as below. (I
note that the SET VAR vFileExt = .. is not in my code, but is presumably
from the Plugin.)
set var vfile text ='Test.XLS'
PLUGIN GetFileExt vFileExt|.vfile
SET VAR vFileExt = '.vfile'
show var vFileExt
.vfile
clear var vfileExt
PLUGIN GetFileExt vFileExt|vfile
SET VAR vFileExt = ''
show var vFileExt
-0-
clear var vfileExt
PLUGIN GetFileExt vFileExt|&vfile
SET VAR vFileExt = ''
show var vFileExt
-0-
clear var vfileExt
PLUGIN GetFileExt vFileExt|'Test.XLS'
SET VAR vFileExt = '.XLS'
show var vFileExt
.XLS
Presumably I am doing something wrong here. If anyone can tell me what I
need to do to make this work that would be very much appreciated.
Thank you.
