Hello Mike,

 

Are the numbers in a field from your data file? If so, try the following in a text Rule.

 

JAVASCRIPT RULE TO SET VERTICAL TYPE OF A VARIABLE FIELD

 

retstr = "";

for (i = 0; i <= Field("Numbers").length; i++)

{

if (Mid(Field("FName"),i,1) == " ")

retstr = retstr + "<p>"

else

retstr = retstr + Mid(Field("Numbers"),i,1) + "<p>"

}

return retstr;

One number per record?

return Field("number").split("").join("<br />");

If you have a series of numbers, you could stick the code inside a FOR loop and insert paragraph tags between each.

thanks got me on track

 

retstr = "";

 

 

for (i = 0; i <= Field("Numbers").length; i++)

{

if (Mid(Field("numbers"),i,1) == " "){

//retstr = retstr + "\n"

}

else{

retstr = retstr + Mid(Field("Numbers"),i,1) + "\n"

}

}

 

return retstr;
