Hi,
We have program names that are partially or completely italicized and manage outside of Tessitura. Is there a way to do this within program name?
Thanks in advance,
Jeri
Hi Jeri,
In SSRS reports formatting part of a textbox is not supported in 2005. So you will have to have two textboxes one for the unformatted part with an expression like
=iif(instr(Fields!lname.Value,"{")>0,
left(Fields!lname.Value,instr(Fields!lname.Value,"{")-1)
,Fields!lname.Value)
The other textbox being for just the iltalic part of the string making sure the font for the box has italic set,and expression in it like the following:
lset(mid(Fields!lname.Value,instr(Fields!lname.Value,"{")+1),
(InStrRev(Fields!lname.Value,"}"))- (instr(Fields!lname.Value,"{")+1))
,””)
This should give you in two separate textboxes:
Jeri Henderson in memory of Nancee Hickman
You can do more text formatting in Infomaker which allows you to change this all in one textbox. I have not tried a working example. Also I have not tried this in word but I would think it is possible.
Hope that helps,Jon

I don't know what you mean "you save it with the tokens in place". Do you type something special in the program name like: Jeri Henderson {in memory of Nancee Hickman}? And we would need to act on them in both areas. Thanks for taking the time to explain.

When you save the program name in tessitura you save it with the tokens in place. Do you need to know how to act upon them in work or in a report or both?

Jon,
That is exactly what we need. How do I set that up?

Jeri,
I was thinking of somthing where you put curly braces around the italicized part. Then in the report or even word act upon the curly braces and italicize that part.

Hi Jon,
We pull names out using Tessi report PROGRAM NAME LISTING and reformat ital in Word. I've not worked with tokens before but can investigate that. Thanks a bunch for the tip.

Will you be using this for reports? The only thing I can think of is to maybe put a token around the part of the name that you want italicized. Then in your report act upon the token and italicize that part of the name.
