Before I report this as a bug I would like to know if it is a feature.
In 4.5.3 if a rbdb field is varchar you can get its string value with
cur.field("nn").value or cur.field("nn").stringvalue.
This is what I don't understand in 5b2 (an example):
' fieldname = "author"
' varchar value of field fieldname = "Hume"
outstr = fieldname + ":" + cur.field(fieldname).value =>
Humeauthor:
outstr = fieldname + ":" + cur.field(fieldname).stringvalue =>
author:hume
Does anybody know anything about this?
Boris
P.S. The problem is not with Hume. Every author gives the same results.
And singers and athletes.
And dogs, according to Ona's testing.
