[SOLVED] Handling Field values having Apostrophe in Webfocus Variables
Hi I am drilling down from a field value which has an apostrophe ['] in it. [Banca Popolare dell’Emilia Romagna] this is the value being passed to a global Variable &&CON. For Example: -SET &&CON = '&ConGrp.EVAL' Dynamically what's being passed is: -SET &&CON = 'Banca Popolare dell’Emilia Romagna'
It the variable fails here and report execution breaks. Please input your suggestion, i need a help over this issue.This message has been edited. Last edited by: <Kathryn Henning>,

Try using:
-SET &&CON = &ConGrp.QUOTEDSTRING;

Don't use .EVAL if you don't need to evaluate the value of the parameter.
