TypeError when concat text before "indexed-repeat"

SMH-Rio — Wed, 17 Jan 2024 14:35:23 GMT

Hello everybody.

I'm trying to use the indexed-repeat function within the concat function, however, I've been receiving a "TypeError" whenever I concatenate some text before the indexed-repeat.

However, if I change the position of the same text after indexed-repeat, concat works normally.

concat(' abc ', indexed-repeat(${texto_pessoal}, ${beneficiario_e_cobeneficiarios}, 1))

concat(indexed-repeat(${texto_pessoal}, ${beneficiario_e_cobeneficiarios}, 1), ' abc ')

I've already tried to force the conversion of parameters with the "string" function, I've already tried putting "str" in bind::type and nothing worked. Replacing "concat" with "+" works in simple expressions, however, in more complex expressions (using the "if" function) I continue to receive the same error.

I'm using Connect 3.19.104

Any explanation or solution for this error?

I have seen pulldata do this before. Trick was to have the function in a column all by itself then use that field in the concat.

Hope that works for you

This worked, Doug.

Ideally, support should be identified the reason for the error, because this solution requires many fields in xlsxform unnecessarily. But for now, it does the job.

Thanks for your help
