Hi everyone. I mostly sit on the sidelines and try to soak up all the great posts but I need to clear something up.
I have a file that creates a .csv file from dynamic database information. At the end of each line, I have "\r\n" (without the quotes) to produce the end of line. I use \r\n because the file is being imported into a windows machine. When I look at the file that is created, there are no spaces between each line. I have been doing this for almost 15 year with no problems. In BBEdit, with "Show Invisibles" I see the end on line character (or I assume that is what it is- a "sideways" L character. To test, I added \r\n twice and as I expectedand in the final .csv file, BBedit shows me two of these characters. Am I missing something? The reason I ask is the new .csv files do not import into the clients system and they are telling me that there are 2 carriage returns on each line. I have been having problems with them already so I don't have much confidence in them to begin with. However, I don't want to tell them they are full of it until I am absolutely sure :-) So am I right to assume the "L" character is indeed a carriage return and that with only one showing at the end of each line in the file and no spaces between the lines, there can only be one carriage return for each line?
