Hi all,
Environment 4D 15.5 client server. On Mac client
I have been using
*WR SET SELECTION *($mainarea;*WR Count *($mainarea;wr nb characters);*WR
Count *($mainarea;wr nb characters))
I find the number returned is not really at the end, as whem I append
another 4D write area. gthe last 2 or 3 characters appear ater the append
When I change the command to
$MyNumber_L:=*WR Count *($mainarea;wr nb characters)*2
*WR SET SELECTION *($mainarea;$MyNumber_L;$MyNumber_L)
I get the desired result. How dopes 4D do the count? I know that there are
some illegal characters. (Bullets) but there are many more than the 3 or 4
characters skipped.
Hopefully this may save someone else time as it took a few hours to finally
track down.
Thanks and regards,
Chuck
