access thread: ampersand


Message #1 by "Vladimir Rakic" <vladimir@z...> on Fri, 24 Aug 2001 19:43:01 +1000
hi all,



i am trying to include '&' in one of my labels.  The word is OH&S, which 

is short for Occupational Health and Safety.

Every time i try to put it into a label a blank space appears instead of 

'&'.  I know that it is a special character, but is there a way to go 

around this ?



thanks,



vlad

I believe you can use && to do what you are needing. Or, you may try sending

the CHR(38) equivalent.



Hope this helps.



Walt

Hello,



Thanks Walt and Peter, && worked just fine.

Add an extra ammpersand to the name, for example, This && that will

display as This & that.
