the workaround is to have an extra dynamic variable on the form, type it with VARIABLE TO VARIABLE, then use it with LISTBOX INSERT COLUMN http://forums.4d.com/Post/FR/18014516/1/18014517#18014517 granted, you would need as many dynamic variable as the columns you insert. it's probably easier to

Special characters in ftp filenames

using v17r2: I get a list of files in a directory on a remote server with *FTP_GetDirList.* Then I loop through the list and download each file, if I don't already have the latest version of it. A problem occurs when a filename contains a character such as a quote mark, copyright symbol, etc.

Doug, I've considered this many times, but have had a couple friends have this go seriously wrong. At this point I'm just too gun-shy because if I had to lose any sense I would not want it to be my sight. I'd rather lose my hearing, then I wouldn't have to listen to all the complainers!

First ORDA runtime error - just like SQL

It looks like ORDA may be 99.9% reliable, just like 4D SQL. I just had my first random, no explanation runtime error from a method I converted from SQL to ORDA. The code has been live for a day and a half - looks like it failed sometime early in day 2. The code: C_TEXT($0;$tManufacturer)

Re: Special characters in ftp filenames

Pat, i'm not sure about what happens when using FTP, however, if you can specify the final file name you can/should filter the file name to remove the gibberish. On a Mac there are only a very few characters which are not 'legal', Windows on the other hand.. it is probably easier to specify

Options I see are: 1. Report as a bug and hope for a fix. Since it is a beta version, maybe your chances are better? 2. Parse the output strings for non-ascii characters and try to correct them. I have not tried it, but it might be possible using Convert to text/CONVERT FROM TEXT. 3. Use

yes - the save button is supposed to save these settings (or at least it did), the save button will save the various expressions, but is not saving the window pane state - for some reason On Fri, 27 Jul 2018 10:39:45 -0500, Stephen J. Orth wrote: > Chip, > > I thought there was something

Re: First ORDA runtime error - just like SQL

Randy, I'd add a check to the item ID string. ORDA is excruciatingly picky in terms of inputs. I bet something is not completely kosher in an item id and that's causing the RT error. Alternatively you could loop through the list of items and check the id there. But if the param is generated or
