Bug assigning Str variable

HugoG

Hi,
In a form I have a text variable named 'X' and his initial value is 'Hi'

Memo1 is: [X]

In Delphi code I have:

FRReport.Variables := ''''+'Hello'+'''';

And then I get in the report:
Hello
(Whitout quotes).

Now, if I wrote:

FRReport.Variables := ''''+'Hello'+#13#10+'World'+'''';
then I get:
'Hello
World'

(With a quote at the begining and at the end).

I guess the correct result should be:
Hello
World
(Whitout quotes).

Regards.

THIS IS NOT A BUG
READ THE PROGRAMMERS MANUAL ON MODIFYING A VARIABLES VALUE
All single quotes must be doubled;

- string should not contain #13#10 symbols.

Not happy about it should not contain #13#10... but you're right.

Thanks.

I found a workaround:

Now, if my string has #13#10 then I ommit the quotes

FRReport.Variables := 'Hello'+#13#10+'World';

All works perfect this way.
