RE: [U2] Weird looking record
Does "import" in field 16 mean this record was imported from some other DB? Mayhap that field got some funky characters in it (like a left-arrow, or backspace) on that other system, and was not cleaned up during import to your U2 system. Turn on up-arrow mode in ED, and then look at attribute 14 again. That will show you the decimal values of any non-printable characters. --Ron P. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Shawn Waldie Sent: Thursday, March 31, 2005 1:00 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] Weird looking record Notice field #14 below.

RE: [U2] Weird looking record
When you're in the editor, switch modes to show control characters. Use the "^" character to switch modes. It should show you what characters are there.

Probably control characters. Unidata?

Re: [U2] Weird looking record
The 1 has double vision and is having trouble standing up. I'd say you were the victim of "drunken data". Obviously PERSON 177 is an alcoholic.
