Hi,

We want to print per thousand sign near a print value.
How can i do this ?
I will know hex code is 89 but it don't work.
But maybe i must configure "Table Microsoft® Windows Latin-1" but how ?

Thanks.

Try

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM COMPUTE PCT.SALES
COMPUTE TSALES/D12.2 = PCT.SALES/10; AS '&|#8240;'
BY COUNTRY
END

In general when dealing with "extended characters" make sure that both your WebFOCUS Client and Reporting Server use a CodePage=137 [U.S English/Western Europe (Latin 1)].

See NLS Settings in WebFOCUS Administration Console (Client) and Web Console (Server).

When using the character entity codes, these are handled by the browser, not WebFOCUS. Changing a codepage makes no difference. I use 437 and of course the permil comes through fine.

Jacquetl did not specify whether or not the intended output was exclusively HTML. His/her signature specifies PDF as well so the entity code recognised by HTML may not be applicable in that case.

Good Alan B. It work fine with html format.

But is it possible with PDF format ?

Alan,

I tried your example but I'v got this error:

(FOC844)  UNCORRECTABLE SYNTAX ERROR: AS  '&|#8240 

. I don't know why but something in my head said: try this without the semicolon. And wonder, wonder it worked.

Any ideas how this is possible? As this is handeld by the browser I don't think this has something to do with my WF version, could it?

ps we will test WF 7.6.11 shortly.

This seems to work:

-SET &PERMILLE = HEXBYT(137,'A1');
-*
TABLE FILE CAR
 SUM COMPUTE PCT.SALES
 COMPUTE TSALES/D12.2 = PCT.SALES/10; AS '&PERMILLE'
 BY COUNTRY
 ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
END
