Author Topic: BUG MC11: List Type field expressions: ";"s in values are resolved incorrectly  (Read 780 times)

There seems to be a confusion between ; used in field values and ; used in expression definitions, causing missing results.


If you have the definition:

This [FieldName]

And FieldName contain items:

item1;item2
item3

The resulting values are:

This item1
This item2
(item 3 is missing)

I believe the ;'s in values should not be resolved unless they are resolved using specific function. Something like:

This list_items([FieldName])
would generate:

This item1
This item2
This item3

This [FieldName]

would generate:

This item1;item2
This item3

For now, any semi-colon in a list type value will be considered a delimiter.  We may add support for an escape character at a later date if it looks necessary.
