PutBlock problem

PutBlock problem
Fri, 22 Feb 2008 10:42:44 -080
{PutBlock @PROPERTY("Active_Page.Name"), B7} puts a formula in to B7
wich 
gives ERR  when page name starts whith a number (25_3rd_st). All I need in 
B7 is a label of the page name.
Any ideas?

The ERR stems from the quirky manner in which  enters data into a 
cell:  using your syntax, the page name is entered into the target cell with a 
preceding plus sign, which will return ERR unless you have a range named
25_3rd_st.

Your alternatives would be either:

   +"{PutBlock
""'"&@PROPERTY("Active_Page.Name")&""
", B7}"

or, more simply:

   {LET B7,@PROPERTY("Active_Page.Name")}

Cheers,
Uli

Same problem in x3.  Use  as an alternative.

Good alternatives Uli.

Another:
{PutBlock "'"&@PROPERTY("Active_Page.Name"), b7}

+"{PutBlock
""'"&@PROPERTY("Active_Page.Name")&""
", B7}"
with ReCulc did the job.
Thank you.
