If action

[Jim Gibson]

I am using and If action in an Xlate I am creating.  The If condition is:

0(0).OBX(0).00584  eq =SYSTEM GENERATED

When I run this through the route tester, I get the error:

[xpm :xlt :ERR /0:  UNNAMED_TID] IF expression parse failed: Extra characters after expression

Error occurred at: ‘D’

Anyone know why?  I have tried

=(SYSTEM GENERATED)

=’SYSTEM GENERATED’

=”SYSTEM GENERATED”

All with the same result.  What is the trick to using multiple word condition?

The simpliest thing to do here is put the comparison in a temp values and use it.  For example copy SYSTEM GENERATE -> @comp

Then 0(0).OBX(0).00584  eq  @comp

will work.

Unfortunatly the parser in the IF statement does not parse embedded spaces very well.

Thanks,

I tried this and it works.  Seems like extra code but if it works it works.
