NAVISION FINANCIALS - DATAPORT Export to .txt - Thousands separator issue

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 21

Hello,

I'm using a dataport to export a list of records into .txt file.

All numeric fields are not correctly translated in the exported .txt file. A strange charactar appears as thousands separator : ÿ

For example a field containing the value 12456 is translated 12ÿ456 

Thank you very much or your kind assistance.

    In Datafield properties, I set SourceExpr: FORMAT("MyField", 0, 9) and it's perfect. Thanks again yzhums for this very valuable solution.

    Hi

    "Hi, The version is a bit old, I'm not sure."

    It is that we call an euphemism.

    Thanks, that helped a lot.

    Hi, The version is a bit old, I'm not sure. This looks like it has something to do with that the operating system is not in English.

    I think you can try FORMAT before exporting.
