How can we write @ parameter while writing text translation. Version 9.4

Best answer by hhy38

I solved the problem. We have to type “&” to Prog Text. Then, we have to click Yes. After that, the “&” is hiding when we refresh.

hhy38,

Have you tried \@ so there will be a slash in front as an escape character?

I take it that Alt+64 is not your intention to have?

Via a small script you might try to update the text. So first enter (at) and save the text.

In the script you would use replace([text translation field], ‘(at)’, ‘@’)

There should be escape character, It was working 3 month ago but I forget the character. “\” does not work here. Do you have any other guess?

hhy38,

Ok, I have IFS10 up and running (no IFS9 available at the moment).

I select Translation Manager\Text Translations

Search for the following:

Next I use RMB and select EditText…

I enter something like:

Pressed OK. Pressed F12 to save. No problems.

At what moment do you get the message?

hhy38,

Weird that this & is the escape character. Thanks for sharing the solution. This might/will help others.
