Trying to remove the start of a column on a report but the beginning is variable length so I want to remove up to the first space found and I tried this vldtstr:strMid(tns:INVOICE_NO_PP_ID,vldstr:strScan(tns:INVOICE_NO_PP_ID,' ')+1,20) but i get an error - GENREPORTIO:Could not generate report:”TRANS_CONF_ERROR:Failed transforming report data: ‘Syntax error in ‘format:formatDateTime($date_2754,’MM/dd/yyyy’,’vldtstr:strMid(tns:INVOICE_NO_PP_ID,vldstr:strScan(tns:INVOICE_NO_PP_ID,' ')+1,20)’)’.” Of course there is nothing in the column about formatDateTime so not sure where that came from - looked for missing apostrophe but nothing. I also used this in a column by itself and it works fine - vldstr:strScan(tns:INVOICE_NO_PP_ID,' ')+1 to return the position of the space.
