Validate Attribute Lookup Fails when the attribute has the | as part of it #153

Closed mhammond0420 closed 7 years ago

The table I have it referencing back to has entries such as Brazil | Hffmn_Brdg | N_CR_500E. When typing in Br and hitting enter it brings up the dropdown for me to choose and the names are listed correctly there. But when I choose something like above it abbreviates to only what is before the |. So it enters Brazil. I am aware that | is not really a good choice to have in a field but I need to know if other symbols will have the same effect.

could you send me a sample dataset? I have a feeling there is a bug as we are probably using | internally mmiller@esri.com

mhammond0420 commented 8 years ago

Absolutely. I thought the | was a definite issue as I know it is how several methods are populated.

The data is currently in a standalone table so I just exported a selection and created a dbf. Let me know if you need anything else. Also if you paste this email into that Issue could you please remove all of my contact info? I noticed that was happening in the others we had worked on and removed myself. Prefer not to have all of that sitting out there.

Thanks

@mhammond0420 I think you replied to github with the attachment, this will strip the attachment, please send directly to me.

MikeMillerGIS commented 8 years ago

@mhammond0420 It was a bug, I resolved it and it will be included in the next release.

Populates the value correctly. Tested with other characters such as !@#$%^&*()_+ as well.
