Michael & Karen:
Thank you very much. I ran a SRPL update of the existing line end
characters with ( char(010) + char(013) ), which solved the immediate
issue.
I will be experimenting with the '^' substitution this weekend and will
advise.
Much appreciated, Bruce

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Line Feed/Carriage Returns in Report BLOB
Fields
Well from the Helpfile:
Special Character
Syntax: SET LINEEND = value
DOS Default: þ [Alt]+[0254]
Windows Default: ^
For all text that I want to display on multiple lines I use 0D0A.
At the beginning of each session I: SET VAR vCRLF = ((char(013)) +
(Char(010)))
That is used everywhere in my data.
So SETTINGS>CONFIGURATION SETTINGS>LINEEND and see which character is
there. Maybe you have a DOS holdover, which if so, a simple change to
a carat might give you some relief.

Question:
This is representative of the text formatting entered into, and
visible in a field of file type NOTE or VARCHAR within the BLOB
Editor:
SET SCREWS
|1/4-20 x 3/8in
|Qty 3 per set
In BROWSE MODE, or in a Report, the data appears formatted as:
SET SCREWSþ|1/4-20 x 3/8inþ|Qty 3 per set
... where (þ = 0AFE).
What codes need I enter at the end of each text line such that a [line
feed|carriage return] formats the text correctly within a report
printout?
Thanks much, Bruce
