PM45540: UNABLE TO ENTER [ (LEFT SQUARE BRACKET) CHARACTER USING [ALTRGR]-[F] IN REPORT STUDIO WITH SLOVENIAN LANGUAGE SETTING

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The character cannot be generated in an Expression Definition,
  Text box, Value Prompt, Search and Select Prompt, etc.  All
  other characters that can be generated using [AltGr] such as ],
  {, }, @, etc; are displayed as expected.  Interestingly, the
  character can be generated in the browser Address bar and also
  in the search field at the top of the Cognos Connection screen
  and when creating a new Folder.????Adding sl as a language in
  Cognos Configuration and changing the Product and Content
  Languages under My Preferences in Cognos Connection has no
  effect.
