Replacing parenthesis?

Hi all,

I'm sure this is a really simple question for most.

Below is a line of my code that doesn't work:

SampleMacro = Replace(SampleM acro, ")", "")

The error is "Too Many parenthesis" even though the target of my
replace command is in quotes. When I change the right parenthesis in
quotes to a letter or integer it works fine. Good ol' .net 2003 is
still seeing the right parenthesis as a programming parameter despite
the quotes.

Is there something else I need to do to identify the ")" as the object
of the search?

Thank you,
Mike Cooper

Hi Mike,

I can paste it in my IDE and than let it run when I make the samplemacro a
string.
Did you type it completly in again?

I am not able to repro that. I recently had a similar problem which
caused me to retype the string literal or the whole statement.

So I want to do the above, and I really, REALLY don't want to rewrite the entire file. I've been working on it for a while now, and can't for the life of me get it functioning.

I need a simple function that can match the number of beginning and ending parenthesis in an expression. Here's a sample expression: ( ( "john" ) and ( "jane" ) and ( "joe" ) ) Does .NET have something built-in that can accomplish this, or do I have to write my own parser? I don't want to reinvent the wheel if possible.

Is there a way to turn off the need to use parenthesis in queries for tablenames etc. I have seen in some documentation examples that parenthesis are not used in the queries. In my install of postgre 7.4 I get an error when I do not use them. Example with parenthesis which works in my build select * from portal."User" where I would like to use select * from portal.User Thanks Tim

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
