And, the most common cause of -ERROR- (2045) is the result of evaluating report expression defined with embedded Printer Control Codes, such as <27 15>, etc.
Once the report is converted and the conversion process is complete, modify the report and delete all those expressions with -ERROR-. Then, take advantage of Windows Report Designer and the report objects Font, Size, properties to accomplish your goal. Hope that helps! Razzak At 03:05 PM 7/18/2014, Gerrish, Bill wrote:
I'm new to R:Base 9.5 extreme (32) and need to convert old R:Base 5.5 databases. Some of my databases convert fine and some do not. The ones that do not all give me the same error. ' -ERROR - Syntax is incorrect for the command SELECT (2045)'. As I am using the Database Explorer tools, selecting the 'Convert Report(s)' command for example I'm not sure what it is telling me. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.
