I'm just wondering if anyone else has run into this weird thing with export
that I just noticed.
filepro 5.0.08, rreport; SCO Unix
The following export and field assignments work as expected:
export word pall = (fn)
pall(1)=1
pall(2)=2
pall(3)=sc
pall(4)=rs
Output: "Jerry","2","EDB RET","44"
But when I comment out the last assignment, I still get output
for the fourth field, and the output is always empty:
export word pall = (fn)
pall(1)=1
pall(2)=2
pall(3)=sc
'pall(4)=rs
Output: "Jerry","2","EDB RET",""
I had to delete the commented line to get the new expected output:
Output: "Jerry","2","EDB RET"
I saw that there were some fixes to export in 5.0.13 that might relate to
this although I did not see a reference to commenting, but only to variable
file naming.
