Clarion/Oracle - Dealing with double quotations "

  1. Default Clarion/Oracle - Dealing with double quotations "

    Hello,
    I have a clarion 6 program running on an Oracle 9i database.
    Within my own program I am making use of the TList 3rd party tool. I
    allow the user to import and export from this TList view to Excel.

    Here is my issue:
    When I import from Excel, via clipboard, and there is a carriage
    return within the cell, the text comes in like this:
    "This is a test to show
    a break in the cell"

    A normal cell comes in like this:
    This is a test to show no break in the cell

    i.e. Windows is adding in the double quotations around the text.

    It gets imported into the database fine, but the problem is the TList
    wont display this properly. indeed, anything with a quotation within
    it will just not get loaded.

    Does anyone have any idea how to deal with this issue?
    If you need further information, or I'm not describing the problem
    sufficiently, please let me know.
    Kind Regards,
    James

    I believe it is the third party software that is causing the
    problems. It won't display any text if there is a " within it. I am
    trying to contact them now.
