V7 WORD WRAP & UNKNOWN CHAR FIELD IN RB - Fixed V8
The following problem occurs under Version 7 for MS-Windows with the
ReportBuilder and is resolved with Version 8 and later releases.
There is a problem when running the ReportBuilder and reporting
character fields with the unknown value (?) and trying to word wrap
the field. It seems that when you have this combination RB does
not display the ? character, but displays special characters, two
small boxes. It also causes the remaining fields not to be displayed.
Workaround:
Create a new calculated field called text-wrp with an expression
IIF(field <> ?,field,"?"). Substitute text-wrp for field in the
report.
-OR-
Upgrade to Version 8 or later
