Export Report to PDF – Invalid XML Character

Hi

I am trying to export a report to PDF but have found that there is an invalid XML character from the system error message. Through DEBUG mode I found the text which contains it:


Called at: 05 Jan 2015 09:00 'PLEASE CALL RE CALLER ADVISED THE PADDOCKS NEXT TO HIS PROPERTY IN AMBERLY ARE VERY DRY AND ARE A FIRE RISK. WOULD LIKE DUTY FIRE PERSON TO ALL HIM, DID NOT WHAT TO GIVE ANY MORE DETAILS *** Passed to Alan Grigg'


The SQL data is fine, but I'm not sure which character or combination of characters is causing the issue. Retyping all the text (not copying and pasting) does not resolve the issue so I can't export to PDF which is the desired output format.

Your assistance would be appreciated in deciphering where and what in the text the invalid character(s).

Thanks
Hello Dennis,

Just a shot in the dark here, but can you remove the apostrophes ( ' ) at the start and end of the comment, and try the export again?

Keep us updated on your progress.

Kind Regards,

Danny
