Subject: [U2] RE: [UV] 10.0.19 - Bug with FMT?


The following statement on 10.0 would insert text marks (@TM) into the
string every 10 characters:

        A = FMT("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ","10L")

This one would truncate and give only the first 10 characters.

        A = FMT("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ","L#10")

Under 10.0.19 the first statement is doing exactly the same as the second
(ie. truncating). Surely this is incorrect.

As a test I tried this:

        A = FMTS("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ","10L")

(Note: FMTS not FMT - for multi-valued FMT)

and it correctly inserted the text marks every 10 characters.

Does anyone know if this is a known bug, or if there is a compile time
switch that I am unaware of?

Thanks,

AdrianW
