I want to use that value to filter customer different that the string.

Thank you in advance

write a function that would do the string manipulation.

garak

a little function could look like this

if (strlen(instr) > 0) then begin
  for i := 1 to strlen(instr) do begin
    if (Instr[i] = '|') then
      outstr += '&<>'
    else
      outstr += format(instr[i]);
  end;
  outstr := delchr(outstr,'<','&');
end;

you can also use the CONVERTSTR function, but there u must "puzzle" a little bit ..
