Thanks

Re: literal short date

Hi Jean Marc, I understand your code, and it is nearly identical to the code I am using for the rest of the calculate age handler.

Quartum PDF line wrapping problem

When I use the Quartum PDF command to print a field of text, the "•" from MacOs is converted to a strange "Y" like character and there is no line wrapping so the sentence runs off the page to the right. Any suggestions for a solution to these problems?

Thanks,

Re: file information

Dear Jaque,

Thanks for your reply.

CAn you tell me what all the numbers of the result mean. I understand that the 2nd item is file size,a dn it looks like 4th and 5th are the dates in seconds. What about the rest?

Unfortunate that this is not documented somewhere...

Thanks again,

I am writing a script that creates HTTP://... addresses and I need to write an ampersand ("&") but when I do this the script evaluates & as an operator. How can I insert an ampersand as a regular character into an argument?

Is there support for printing a chart without the card background?

How about exporting the graphic as an image?
