itemdelimiter

Post by Bernard13 » Thu Aug 27, 2015 11:00 am

using LC 7.06, mac OS 10.8.5, french, I get the surprising result :
itemdelimiter in the message box single line = ";"
item delimiter in the message box multiple lines = ","
which works as expected, i.e. differently depending on the number of lines ;-)

Klaus, I think the first line has a semi-colon.

Bernard, I don't see that. I get a comma in both cases.

I still see the problem on another machine, OS 10.9.5 (french version), LC 7.02 :
asking for itemdelimiter in the single line message box gets ";" and "a" is among items of "a,b" is false, whereas item delimiter is "," in the multiple lines message box and "a" is among items of "a,b" is true !!!!
may be due to the french localisation of the system ?

Fortunately, the default itemdelimiter is "," throughout the programs I write !
