    When adding Label Text #NAME? displays

    Issue Summary

    When Label Text is added to a template and the text inserted starts with a hyphen #NAME? - similar to an Excel function which cannot complete - appears in the template.

    This is due to a restriction with the underlying technology which Template Studio uses.

    Resolution 1

    Instead of using Label Text use Data Label Text with an expression. In this case simply enclosing the required text in single brackets will be sufficient. So the following would be a suitable expression for the above example:

    '- Dry'

    Resolution 2

    Use the Windows Character Map to select an alternative (similar looking) character and paste this into the Label Text:
