Spaces in output text file

Post by Joe_Floyd_(Guest) » Tue Dec 09, 2003 12:44 pm

I have a report that outputs a text file (actually a .QIF file to import into quicken.)____It worked fine with the older version, but when I upgrade the RRWRUN.EXE file to version 10, it puts 2 spaces on the left side of the exported file.____An example:____Instead of this:____!BANK__D12/05/04____I get this:____(2 spaces)!BANK__(2 spaces)D12/05/04____(Since spaces don^t show in this forum, I had to put in words.)____Any ideas?____Thanks,____Joe Floyd

[updated:LAST EDITED ON Dec-09-03 AT 03:51 PM (EST)]Update to the latest 10.1.013 and things should then work as expected.____Kathleen__R&R Support

I have (I think) the latest version - 10.1.003 (although you mentioned 10.1.013 in your post.) I see in the list of fixes it supports "marginless" text exports also.____But I am not going through the export dialog - I am running the program from a command line with rrwrun.exe using a text file to pass the parameters to it.____Any solution for me?

Any ideas? Right now I am having to manually edit the text file with Wordpad and remove the blank spaces ...

[updated:LAST EDITED ON Dec-10-03 AT 05:48 PM (EST)]And you are sure that your rrwrun.exe is the latest 10.1.003 and you do not have any left margin set or alternatively the report is saved with the no margins/page breaks option?____Kathleen__R&R Support

Success!____I didn^t know that I could save the text export settings if I wasn^t using that dialog to export the report.____I tried it and it worked perfectly. Thanks for your help -
