Report output problem (*Bug*) '\\\\'

bmccarthy

Hi all,
I want to output a network folder path onto a report

for example '\\Machine1\sharedfolder'

To ouput this correctly onto a report I had to output

'\\\\Machine1\\sharedfolder'

to achieve the desired result. However, it doesn't work correctly
I end up getting a new line at the end of the first set of \'s like below

\\
Machine1\sharedfodler

Does anyone know how to get this right or is it a bug afterall??

You can try to use a text constant for it.

Hi,
thanks mate, that worked.

Only limitation was it is still a bit funny if I assign the text value to a variable rather than append it to the end of a text variable.

Cheers
