Upgrading from RH7 to RH8: Problem with user-defined variables

  • October 13, 2009

Example:

Before upgrade: <uservariable name=Product_name1 x-showvalue x-value=MyProduct>MyProduct</uservariable>.

After upgrade: <?rh-udv_start name="Product_name1" ?>MyProduct<?rh-udv_end ?> .

Notice that there is now a space before the period. Any time my UDV is followed by another letter or punctuation, there is now an extra space. 😕😕 Does anybody know of a way to fix this besides using FAR to search and replace every possible combination of UDV + letter/punctuation?

    Problems like that make me a whole lot happier that we upgraded from RHX5 where variables didn't exist! I think the best way forward IS to use a find and replace tool. Sorry.
