[CASE-OPENED] Distinct values in maintain stack

Hi,
I am trying to populate a ListBox with the values in stack. The stack is populated from a fex file dstfund (basically to extract distinct values of the column fund_name).

 
TABLE FILE SOLV_D4_ON_DEMAND
BY FUND_NAME
ON TABLE PCHOLD
END


My maintain code is as:
 
seleclistAmc.fund_name/a100v;
exec dstfund into seleclistAmc;

type "seleclistAmc.foccount<<seleclistAmc.foccount";
compute jrow/i5 = 1;
repeat seleclistAmc.foccount

type "Fund<<seleclistAmc(jrow).fund_name";

jrow=jrow+1;

Endrepeat



When I am printing the values in stack seleclistAmc, it is only displaying me the values till first space. i.e if value is 'ANIL KUMAR' it is only showing 'ANIL' and hence listbox is populated with first word of the values. Whereas my fex file returns it correctly.Why is this happening? Is it a product limitation. How to overcome that? Please suggest.

Thanks in avance.

Can you determine the NLS code page you are using? Could it be 65001 - UTF8?

If you don't specify to only hold the printed columns, you'll get two columns in the hold file if you just say BY FIELD. You'll always get the default verb, being the same as the by field.
You should add ON TABLE SET HOLDLIST PRINTONLY to be sure you only get the fields you asked for.

Maintain doesn't worry about that, and it doesn't affect the maintain stack at all.

Hi Alan B,
I dont think we can change the NLS code as it will impact all the applications we have.Is there any other way to handle this at application level?

Thanks for your help.

If you are running UTF8, open a support ticket. I believe there is a simple patch available.
