Re: %subst problem

It's not the endposition of the string. It's the length of the string.
In this case it should be nEndPos = 10

%subst(string:start{:length})

Regards,
Leif

Subject: %subst problem


This statement is blowing up. However during a debug, I have values in
both nStartPos anf nEndPos and they appear to be correct, 30 and 39,

This is where we get an invoice number. J8_Comment has contents and they
are what they should be. I am not sure what is wrong at this point.



eval J8_Comment = %subst(J8_Comment : nStartPos

nEndPos)
