texte = I have a custom conversion database that I swear worked several months ago but now seems in effective. Basically, I want to strip out spaces,dashes (-), and open and close parentheses from some field inputs prior to storing them in a database. The convert database (called CleanCard.db) looks like: From (TAB) To (CR) (space) (TAB) (null) (CR) - (TAB) (null) (CR) ( (TAB) (null) (CR) ) (TAB) (null) (CR)(space) = a space character (null) = no entryI can see that it loads in the open databases view in the WebCat admin page. However, it strips only the dashes. Spaces and parentheses are left intact. Whyt? I used the same conversion last summer and it worked fine (I am updateing a seasonal process). Any ideas? Please?
