This seems to be my day for questions. Can anyone please tell me why my report looks fine when I preview it but when I export it to a text file it is missing some of the data at the end. What I have is a field that puts name, address and ext... in one field that is then exported to a txt file to be uploaded to the web where a perl script runs it and processes it. now this has worked great but for some unknow reason it has started leaving out some of the data during export. Can anyone help?

Sincerely,

Charles
 
Charles,

Have you checked the number of characters of the combined field that you are creating?

I am wondering if the field length is too small or if it might simply be exceeding the maximum of the 255 character limit in some cases.

HTH,

Steve
