Use the Oconv/IConv functions. Would need specific examples to provide specific help or you could search the forums for "OConv" for examples already discussed.

CHAR(34) is a " and is needed separately because of the string delimiter. And make sure your second value is quote-space-quote, not quote-quote - the former will replace each character with a space while the latter will delete each character from the string.

Code: Select all

Convert("~`!@#$%^&*()_-+={[}]|\:;'<,>.?/":CHAR(34)," ",YourField)

Not much to enlarge. You make the lookup an 'inner join' by only taking the rows where the lookup succeeded and using the 'Link Variables / Input' NOTFOUND value for that reference link to check.

Just check to see if the lookup succeeded and constrain the job to only pass rows where that is true. Use the Link Variable NOTFOUND, and Not() it to check for 'found'.

Either that or call your mail program directly from the command line. Sorry, but ...

The syntax of the 'D' conversion code is fully documented in the online help. From the help Index, type a "D" and that should take you right to D code [BASIC] where the syntax is explained along with a number of examples.

You can also get there from the OConv or IConv topics.

Hmmm... while it may work, the 4 in "D4" isn't needed and (as noted in the documentation) the 'modifiers' of '[2,2,4]' and the delimiter are for output only and are ignored on input. So, suprisingly, all that was needed was exactly what Ray posted. :wink:
