Thanks Dave & Mike Savage - that did it for me! Yeah, I kinda blew it. My QA Tech buddy - when he was looking at a sample text file for this project - he saw in his Hex Editor that it was 0A & 0D (that's Zero-D) - that were at the end of the lines. I know Zero-D is supposed to be represented by CHR(13) - I just miscalculated the 0A as 11 instead of the proper 10!
And - yeah - the CHR(13) was sufficient when looking at this file when its within a Memo field - but, it definitely needed the CHR(10) when exporting as a Text file! -K- -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dave Crozier Sent: Wednesday, November 10, 2010 5:08 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: COPY MEMO TO & Text Wrapping Issues... Kurt, chr(13) Carriage Return and/or Chr(10) Linefeed are the deliminators that you need... NOT chr(11). The chr(10) is sometimes needed depending on the program you want to view the data in but chr(13) normally suffices on its own. Dave C -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kurt Wendt Sent: 09 November 2010 23:00 To: [email protected] Subject: COPY MEMO TO & Text Wrapping Issues... Honestly - I think this may be the 1st time I ever used the COPY MEMO TO command - so, maybe I am just doing something a little bit out-of-wack... I have to create these Pipe Delimited files for thid project where files get uploaded to this eCommerce type site. When I generate the data, and insert the data into the Memo field - after building it up - I looked directly at the Memo field - and it looks fine! The lines properly wrap. At first I goofed, and failed to add the CHR(13) - but, after doing so - all looked fine. But, then, when it came time to output the file to the final Text file that would get uploaded to this site - the lines in the final text file (which I careated using the COPY MEMO TO command) - will NOT Wrap properly - it just strings it all out when I view it in Notepad. I even tried adding CHR(11) character (which was just a Guess) - and that didn't help either! Anyone have any insights for me???
