Bob,
you have different line endings depending on what system generated it. * Macs uses cr as line ending * Unix uses newline (linefeed I think) * Win uses both, one following the other.
yes, something like this, or I am mixing who uses what.. but that don't matter. Check for line endings using numToChar func, check for cr, for lf, and for cr & lf.
That should do the trick...
Cheers Andre

Well, I've made substantial progress on my oil-for-food program - converting
web pages to usable tab-delimited fields of information for importing into a
database. However, I've encountered a (small) problem I haven't been able
to overcome (yet).
I end up with lines that have some sort of return character at the end of
each line. I tried a simple scripting solution like:
if the last char of line I of tData is cr then delete last char of line I of tData end if
And even sampled for an lf or return, but I get nowhere...
What IS that character at the end of each line and how can I kill it? At
the end of each line the routine should be a tab, and a return. If I kill
the returns, then I can solve me problem (okay, well I can solve THIS
problem).
Any suggestions of where I'm going wrong?
Thanks,
Bob
