CDATA wrapper is not outputting around XML element data that contains entities - Sterling Gentran:Server for Microsoft Windows

Troubleshooting


Problem

CDATA wrapper is not outputting around XML element data that contains entities

Symptom

When translating data that contains XML entities (<>'&") in Gentran Server Windows, the CDATA wrapper is not used.

Data prior to import: <VENDOR NAM>"'&
Data after import: <Name><VENDOR NAM>"'&</Name>
Data should appear as: <Name></Name>

The Output tab of the OUTPUT side of map does not have the box checked to "Use Character Entity Reference instead of CDATA sections".
