Hi Ravi,
If you're using a PC then it's likely that you'll run into this problem.
Director uses the Mac convention of a single character(either LF or CR, I
dont remember which one) to signal an end of the line. Pc's require a CR
_and_ an LF. So to get rid of those extra characters you'll need to run a
script on the text. Replace all places with a CR and an LF with a single
return. They correspond to the ASCII codes of 10 and 13. Cross check the
codes though.
Regards,
Pranav

I am reading a text file using File I/o. When i read it at the beginning of
each new line i am getting a Box type character. How
can i remove it before placing it in a field. I know it is something to do
with the return character or something else.
