Problem with underscored fields in RAP

rbuser

I have a problem with underscored fieldnames in RAP.

Last year I've written a application with Delphi 6, IBO Native
Components 4.2, IBOPipeline and RepBuilder 6.03
In this application I had a lot of Underscored fields for example
Customer_ID.

In RAP Events I wrote allways the fieldnames without the underscores
for example IBOPipelineCustomer['CUSTOMER ID']
and it works fine.


Now I want to migrate to Delphi 7 and ReportBuilder 7.03 and I've
noticed that I've problems with underscored fields in RAP.
Now I have to write the fieldmames with underscore even so in RAP
IBOPipelineCustomer['CUSTOMER_ID'].


In my application are more than 400 hunderts of RAP Events with this
behaviour. Is there a way to change that automaticly?

I'm not sure which piece of software is responsible for my proplem.
IBO? ReportBuilder? Delphi7?

Perhaps anyone could help me

thanks in advance

Hi Rudi,

This is most likely not a RAP problem. If you would like to trace the
ReportBuilder code, take a look at the
TppCustomDataPipeline.GetFieldForAlias function in the ppDB.pas file. As
you can see the actual name is just passed into this method and the
corresponding field is then retrieved.
