This version information comes as a string eg. "6.03.00" or "7.1.00". For comparison of client versions I need to remove the "."'s from then string ending up with only digits which I then can assign to an integer field. I'm using then command (for the first part) SUBSTRC($Version$, 0, STRSTRC($Version$, ".")-1) but are getting an error message as: "Unexpected character (ARERR 2291) zIntVersionMajor [Assign line error at position 29]". If I'm trying to only provide the two first parameters I'm not getting the error message, but the third one is the error trigger. Trying to do other stuff it seems like I'm not allowed to use the 3rd parameter. What can be then mistake I'm doing while using the SUBSTRC function with all 3 parameters causing then error message?
