Goo'day,
As recently as last Thursday, I was informed of a bug with FMT in UV10.0.something.
I understand it's fixed with UV10.1 .....

To get the text marks, you'd want to code A = FMT("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ","10T") Note formatting "10T", not "10L"
It works that way on 10.0.15 and I must say that's what I expected. I would have been quite surprised if "10L" and "L#10" were different, actually.

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,
