UDPin peculiarlity

Hi

I have a UDPin component, and its happily receiving.
The test string being sent to it contains \t (tab) characters in it, so that I can chop it up using the convert dat.
If I switch on “value column” then I can see the tabs in the decimal listing (decimal 9).
The raw message shows a full stop “.” and the convert dat is not blocking it into columns as expected. Most peculiarly if I set the match character in the convert dat to be “.” it does split it up correctly

Am I missing something ?

Thanks for your input !

Could you post an example? Maybe just lock the UDP In when there is data in it so it stays put?

Thanks

Hmm not so easily. I will see what I can mangle together (and repeat).
In the meantime, I have managed to force a work around.

Thanks
