Having problem with CellConv

I am trying to apply a conversion to a column
The online help states the col/row is [field; record] with a semi-colon
The examples show a comma.

I have tried both.
In a loop for each COL
Call Set_Property(OLE_TABLE,"OLE.CellConv[":COL:";All]",ColConv:@FM:ColConv)

I have also tried setting the specific cell eg 3,3 and 3;3

I am using MD2 as a conversion.

Any thoughts as to why it does not work for me.

  • Colin,

    What online help are you referring to? Are you going to this page? I don't see any commas used in these examples.

    Also, please read the section on Conversion Pattern very carefully. There are caveats when using implicit formatting.
  • Ah, I was looking at the local SRP_Controls.chm file that I have.
    This had commas in the examples.
    It also referred to the fact that the conversions can be any acceptable OI conversion, which I was using.

    The SRP wiki help has been updated and thus correct for the version I am using.
    I will follow this, and use this help in future when things dont work for me.

    Thanks
    Colin
  • Colin,

    I apologize for the confusion. But this issue is exactly why we created the wiki. Only one person could maintain the .CHM help file and it was a chore to keep current, even more so to distribute. This is also why the newer versions of the SRP Editor now bring up the wiki documents rather than the .CHM documents when F1 is pressed.
