Word IF with MERGEFIELD which has a double quote in it generates IllegalStateException

Hello,

We are using a Word IF statement in our document merge and when we use the following syntax:

{ IF { MERGEFIELD soort } = "B-punt" "{ MERGEFIELD tekstvak1}" }

However when the mergefield tekstvak1 contains any form of double quote Aspose generates an IllegalStateException with no message. We had to figure this out by trial and error.

How can I prevent this from happening?

Thanks.

Hello,

I have attached a document with this case. If the mergefield htmlvalue has a double qoute in it (" or " or ") we get an illegalStateException with no message. We are using builder.insertHtml() to insert the htmlvalue.

Thanks

Hi Bart,

Thanks for your inquiry. After an initial test with Aspose.Words 14.6.0, I was unable to reproduce this exception on my side. I would suggest you please upgrade to the latest version of Aspose.Words. You can download it from the following link. I hope, this helps.

Sorry for the late reply, I was on holiday.

I have just tested this with 14.6.0 and the problem persists. Are you sure you tried this correctly? I am 100% sure this is a bug caused by the double quote inside of the html.

Thanks,

Bart
