v2013 VI Export - exporting temp values no longer works - any solutions out there? We are upgrading a customer from 4.20 to 2013. They have a VI export to a fixed length ascii file. It has 4 Temp fields in it which are actual data fields to export, with column positions. On 4.20 you could assign a position to the temp. On 2013, you can't. Am I missing something? Any solutions with VI Export before I go the usual crystal reports alternative?

Not sure what you mean Clark. Are you trying to export substrings of actual Sage data fields?

If the operation is Assign, then the temp field should export to the specified column.

Yes. i.e. the output file needs to concatenate part of the item number and part of the description. So I ""assumed"" the temp field operation is calculated, not assign. When you do a field operation calculated, there is no position field. However, if you do a field operation ""Assigned"", you do get a position field. And you have the calculation field still available. I'm testing now to see if doing an assign operation with a calculation produces the desired result.

Yeah, that'll work.
