Program symbols in standard text

Hi, usually symbols starts and ends with "&". However, I have encountered that the symbol only has "&" at the start. How is this possible?

According to this source a closing '&' is always needed at the end of a symbol.

Do the symbols get replaced in your example?

Weird!

I would execute to see what happens.

You could build a small report using following FM to perform some tests

Also look into table STXH (or within sapscript transactions) to identify the 'creator' of the text
(And show him some online documentation)
