I took over a client who created a number of crystal reports that output to printboss. Very nice, but they do something strange with the crystal variable that evaluates to the trigger string
'PB#INFO '+Chr (247)+{@PrintBossForm}+Chr (247)+', '+
Chr (247)+Chr (247)+', '+
Chr (247)+{@PrintBossDocNo}
As you can see, they slap this special character which is called a cedilla around the data. Other printboss trigger strings I have seen use right and left square brackets instead of this. It prints out like
PB#INFO +FORM_NAME+,++,+123122
but one installation of Printboss strips away the special character crud and a different installation leaves it in causing it to error out with "Can't find "+FORM_NAME+"
'PB#INFO '+{@PrintBossForm}+ ', ,'+{@PrintBossDocNo}
This makes me think there is some setting in Printboss I need to turn onto get the crud to be stripped away. But I can't find it.
I could change the underlying crystal report to be
'PB#INFO '+{@PrintBossForm}+ ', ,'+{@PrintBossDocNo}
and that fixes it, but I don't want to change all the reports if at all possible.
