Dee Sent: Wednesday, 30 August 2006 09:32 To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Question: External I'm trying to create a "console" where users can select various queries. To do this I am trying to user the External command. I am using an active link to set fields to a character field: " '\536870940' LIKE "$\%USER%$" " The manual says to use \ Problem is now the set fields is setting the field with the \ in it. This is my first time doing this and i'm a little confused. Any help would be appreciated.
