HyperCard Reports: Use Straight, Not Curly, Quotes (7/92)
If a report item you're creating in the new report templates area of
HyperCard 2.0 is showing up blank no matter what you do to the "item
contents," be sure you're not using curly quotes instead of the straight
quotes that HyperCard expects to see.
Even a single curly quote (produced with the keyboard's Option-[ and
Option-Shift-[) will make the item appear blank.
