Go (Real) output different than the Trail Run output???

Post by cities4rent »

I've got a routine that works when I run the 'Trial Run'. But when I then run the 'Go (Real)', I get different results. Even when I just run it for one datafile...with the datafile and the Trial Input being exactly the same.

Any suggestions???

While I'm still not sure why the Trial Run worked and the Real Run didn't....I did manage to get it to work. I removed a hidden character and while it didn't change the Trial Run output, it did change the Real Run output.

All is good.

Hi there,

As documented in the help for the Trial Run Area, the Windows memo control automatically converts Unix end-of-line feed characters to Windows end-of-line characters. This can throw out filters that rely on one line type or another.

To make your filter less sensitive to this problem, start it off with a Convert end-of-lines filter with conversion from 'Auto detect' to "DOS (PC)'
