Optio and V5R1 SP20

[glbcbc]

We have recently applied SP20 and V5R1 to our AS/400. When printing AP checks through OptioDCS, all apostrophes are being translated to a question mark...example...O'Neal becomes O?Neal....has anyone else seen this?

Thanks,

Greg

We just put SP20 in last week and Accounting informed me today that we are having the same problem with AP Checks. Question mark in place of the single quote mark. I ran optio with logging on and the question mark is in the translated pdf data. Did you come up with a solution? I just emailed OPTIO Support asking what I can do about it.

Optio told us to upgrade to their new product that is now in beta test....they tested our checks and they work fine in their new product. However, we are in no hurry to beta test for them. My developers are currently working on an Optio function to substitute the apostrophe for a question mark. This will have to be our short term solution.

I used the following code to change the question mark.

LET prows = ROWS(pay_to)
FOR xp = 1 TO prows
WHILE WHERE("?",pay_to[xp]) > 0
LET xq = WHERE("?",pay_to[xp])
LET pay_to[xp,xq] = "'"
END WHILE
END FOR
