DELIMIT

Description:

Allows the user to specify the delimiting character which separates the individual data fields when querying a specified data server. The default delimiter is the ~ (tilde) character.

Example:

EXTERNAL DELIMIT $!!TOK_VAR ’&’

Syntax:

>-- EXTERnal DELImit server_token text_char -->

where:

server_token is an integer identifying the required data server channel and text is a single character only.

Note:
The user must choose a delimiting character which does not occur within any data, otherwise Query will split the incoming data string in the wrong place.
