can’t display the whole string in Xlate if there is a space

[Shu Chen]

Hi clovertech,

I am trying copy PV2:3.1 field to PV1:3.1 field. data type is patient location.

if there is space in PV2:3 field value,  I only could display the first part. Any suggestions will be great!!!

for example:

PV2:3.1 is “test engine”  –> PV1:3 will be displayed ad “test”

if there is no speace, everything looks a great.

thank you.

Is this via Xlate COPY Action?

Is there any Tcl involved?

yes. only use copy in xlate

no tcl has been used.

Well that should not happen normally.

Can you reduce your Xlate down to the bare minimum (just the COPY in question if possible), run the tester and show us the Xlate (the properties of the COPY Action in question shown), the source values (from the HL/7 Tester), and the result of the test.

Maybe we can see something.

Let us know the release of Cloverleaf as well.

HI JIM

thanks for your quick reply,

I am using cloverleaf v6

my logic is

if PV1:3 is “^^^J” , copy PV2:3.2 to PV1:3.1

You are not the first to find that xlateOutVals must be treated as a list.  Too bad they didn’t name the variable xlateOutValList.

Try adding a
