Can you post some C/AL code?

Prem

This code is on onpresection


fi.OPEN('C:\hex.txt');
line:='1INHSBC'+COPYSTR(accno,1,3)+COPYSTR(accno,4,6)+COPYSTR(accno,10,3)+fullname;
fi.WRITE(line);
line:='';

This code
fi.OPEN('C:\hex.txt');
should be in the OnPreSection of the Header.

This code
line:='1INHSBC'+COPYSTR(accno,1,3)+COPYSTR(accno,4,6)+COPYSTR(accno,10,3)+fullname;
fi.WRITE(line);
line:='';
should be in the OnPreSection of the Body.

If there is no printing involved in this report, you better put your code in the OnPreDataItem and OnAfterGetRecord triggers of the Dataitems. Then you should use the report property ProcessingOnly = yes.

Still its not wotking Luc !!!!

Is there a way to add a new line character :roll:

Luc_VanDyck

Be sure to add fi.TEXTMODE(TRUE) before your fi.OPEN statement.

This is from the on-line help:
If f.TEXTMODE is set to TRUE and Value is an integer, the system formats the integer into text and writes the result, followed by a new line character.

If Value is a record, the system separates each field with a tab character.

If f.TEXTMODE is FALSE and Value is an integer, the system writes the integer as an integer which is four bytes long.

Thanks Luc Seems to be Working ........
Let me do some R&D on this

Prem

Instead of writing all the wariables into a string variable and transering into the text file , Cant we write the fields directly... when i try that its again the same.

Luc_VanDyck

Have a look at Dataports. They are used for exporting data to a text-file, or importing data.

Prem

No i am not straight away writing those fields ... basically i am writing infos on to a text file and that has to be in a format ,i have to convert each and every values in filed's.
