My experience is that line endings are automatically handled by some programs, and differently even on the same platform.

Further, the encoding for the characters varies ( eg. \r cr char(13) Chr(13) <BR> )

One example is opening some text files in Notepad and Wordpad and seeing line wrapping variations.

Most system clipboards try to arbitrate the formatting differences between programs, but each program also does clipboard auto- conversions. Perhaps the most elegant application clipboard is Microsoft Excel, which has to handle text, numbers, cells, formatting, images, charts, drawing objects, collections of objects, and much more.

From my experience, the line ending tasks are the responsibility of the programmer. Detection logic should be used to make sure that the user experience and the data handling are done correctly.

We are creating standalones and launching them in browsers. We have issues with taking in all of a field. Any help appreciated.

Works:
on mouseUp
 put "12131232" into myScore
 do "alert ('"  & myScore & "');" in browser
end mouseUp



Does NOT work:
on mouseUp
 put fld "ListOfFiles" into myScore
 do "alert ('"  & myScore & "');" in browser
end mouseUp


Works:
on mouseUp
 put line 1 of fld "ListOfFiles" into myScore
 do "alert ('"  & myScore & "');" in browser
end mouseUp

WE seem to be able to put in just one line.

Thanks in advance for your help.
