Hi Gurus,

We've inherited a bit of code from a developer who is no longer with our company. It appears she is attempting to import multiline text into a Baan text field. Her documentation:


This is sample data:

Line 1 is the item number
Line 2 contains:

Start of Text Control characters "{\{"
The text group "text"
The laguage code "2"

Line 3 throug 6 is the actual item text
Line 7 is the end of text control characters "}\}"


Example:
05101
{\{text 2
Item text1
Item text2
Item text3
Item text4
}\}



However, this does not appear to work. No text is actually imported into Baan via Exchange. Does anyone know how to import multi-line text into Baan?

Thanks,
Ben

See Quick guide 1004

Thanks for your quick reply, Gary.

Where can I find the QG 1004? do I need to go to Infor's site?

Thanks,
Ben

You should be able to download it from the support site. I only have a paper copy but maybe someone else can upload a copy to this thread.

hi ben.kansas,
what is text group "text"?! You have to put the fieldname at the positon of "text". for example txtf or txta and so on. and after the fieldname at positon 9 (its important) comes the language no..

Hi mpfaender,

Thanks for your response. You're right it is a text field like txtn or txta. Thank you for clarifying. I'll make the recommened adjustments and see if that works.

Thanks,
Ben
