Carriage Returns

Post by Tammy_(Guest) » Fri Jul 18, 2003 12:07 pm

I am using Xbase V10. The input data has carriage returns in it. R & R is not printing the rest of the data after the carriage return is read. Is there a conversion that can be done to treat a Carriage return as a space when reading the input file?____Thanks

Is your field formatted to word wrap?____Kathleen__R&R Support

No, It is aligned left and to print after previous field.

I tried word wrap and I get the same results. The only difference is that instaed of creating a new row and puuting the comments after the carriage return is that it does not craete another row and it loses the comment after the carriage return.____Do you have any other ideas?____Thank You Tammy

You can try changing the default memo editor in Options->Preferences and see if that helps.____Kathleen__R&R Support
