PROPERTY

 

Name: ProcessEscapeCharacters

Example:

 

If you have a string = "Esape = \ Field = | Component = ^ SubComponent = &"

 

oVendor.ProcessEscapeCharacters = False

X = oVendor.VendorEscData("Esape = \ Field = | Component = ^ SubComponent = &")

X is now "Esape = \ Field = \F\ Component = \S\ SubComponent = \T\"

 

'Now set this property to True

 

oVendor.ProcessEscapeCharacters = False

X = oVendor.VendorEscData("Esape = \ Field = | Component = ^ SubComponent = &")

X is now = "Esape = \E\ Field = \F\ Component = \S\ SubComponent = \T\"
