Passed parameter between Forms contains comma

Question

Hi,

in my app I am passing parameters between two Forms:

And one of these parameter contains comma in its value, like this: TX57263376100XT batch 942, KI

And it is cause this error, when second Form is called:

It seems, that internally, these parameters are separates by comma, and it is caused this issue. Because when I delete comma from my parameter value, it is works fine.

Please is there any way how to pass parameters which contains commas?

Hi,

for now, solution is, as you proposed, do it thru FormScript. So for passing property from parent Form to child Form, I can use something like this:

ThisForm.ParentForm.PrimaryIDOCollection.CurrentItem.Properties["paymentReference"].Value

And I also find issue when you call FormScript method via Form Designer, and passing variables into it, and when this variable value contant brackets, it also cause error.

Again solution is access variables inside FormScript like this:

ThisForm.Variables("varCustomer").Value

Hello,

Interesting, Can you let us know the cause once you solve it?

Another option is to get the value from the child form..ThisForm.ParentForm.Variables("paymRef").Value

Regards,

Just one more update. I try to use formatted command also on the other side, on the second Form, when I am filling data from variable to property, like this:

Now it runs without error, but value is not correct part after comma is missing

So original value is: TX57263376100XT batch 942, KI

But on second Form I have this value: '''TX57263376100XT batch 942

Am I missing something here?
