Re: Help! Very Urgent! Problem with quoted strings in Developer 6i

Thenk you for your reply but it doesn't resolve my problem. Because using [AFTER PRARAMETER FORM] the single quote remains in top and the end of the string always (in 60 and 6i). We have to pass for example a string wih a space (blank) at the begin. Without quotetion the report don't read the blank. In 60 with quotation (IN THE FORM, BEFORE PASSING THE PARAMETER) the report read ok the blank and the others character of the string. In 6i with quotation the single quote remains in top and end of the string. Thank you for any other help. Hallo Emanuela
