I have a string scalar that I need to pass into a putdocx. Whenever a double quote or some special characters like a semicolon is encountered, the line gets interrupted in the final .docx. It shows up fine in a -di- command however. I tried passing a with a `=char(34)' within the string scalar for the double quotes (based on pointers from posts and discussion by Bjarte Aagnes, but that does not solve the issue. This is related to my earlier post from yesterday (which I managed to solve on my own and will share shortly to close the loop on that post). But this is the one last piece of that puzzle I cannot get around. For the sake of clarity, I have only included blocks that are relevant.
Rest of the code including the 4 other scalars I passed with it.
What I am getting in the final docx:
Code:
scalar ngstext = `": (A) Co-mutations and structural alterations in patients with any co-mutations ordered first by TP53 mutation class (TP53MIS vs. TP53NMIS) and then by best response to first line therapy. Structural alterations/losses predominated with CUX1, EZH2, and APC. Genes corresponding to the "EPI7" signature include CBL, CUX1, DNMT3A, EZH2, NF1, KRAS and TET2. (B) TP53 VAF % by key covariates. EPI7 gene alterations (b), CUX1 alterations (d) and 2+ monosomies (f) were all associated with significantly higher TP53 VAFs."' di ngstext // shows up fine here
