Hard Return in Notes and Alerts Results
If you hit the Enter key after typing an alert or within notes, the system stores an additional character "/n" at the end of the typed text in the database.
For example, if you type text and hit the Enter key after each word:
THIS
IS
A
TEST
This is how it is saved to the database: THIS\nIS\nA\nTEST\n
This does not display in the application but can cause problems if you are using specific text as a criterion for a report. For instance, if you wanted to identify all alerts that begin with "THIS IS A TEST", using ALERT.TEXT = 'THIS IS A TEST', it would only find those alerts that were typed without any hard returns.
