Re: [RBASE-L] - Mailing Address Line Feed Fail

[Razzak Memon]

Bruce,

Be sure to place a Variable Memo object on the report, with "Suppress Empty Lines" enabled from the right click context menu.

The variable should be a NOTE data type, which combines the various TEXT strings.

An example is detailed within the Line Compression page in the R:BASE Tutorial:

Very Best R:egards,

All:

I need to concatenate mailing addresses with variable line counts, for envelope printing. For example:

 

Addressee

StreetAddress

CityStateZip

or:

Addressee

Department

Corporation

StreetAddress

CityStateZip

 

A Report Variable is placed within the Page Header of a table-bound Report to serve as the printing breakpoint.

 

Simplified to focus just on line feeding[1] (ignoring the IFNULLing required for variable line counts), the variable:

 

( Addressee + (CHAR(013)) + Department + (CHAR(013)) + Corporation + (CHAR(013)) + StreetAddress + (CHAR(013)) + CityStateZip )

 

... produces this string, exactly where the address should be, one per envelope:

 

AddresseeStreetAddressCityStateZip

or:

AddresseeDepartmentCorporationStreetAddressCityStateZip

 

 

 

 

Thoughts? And thanks.

[1] This has also been attempted with (CHAR(013)) + (CHAR(010)) . No change.
