Memo field formating

Post by dbarbul » Thu Sep 23, 2004 12:04 pm

When I use Btrieve and have memo field (defind as Note in Field.ddf) and enter some text in it as:____This is a first line.__This is a second line.__This is a last line!____(after each line I put CR to get a new line)____in R&R 10 it look like this:____This is a first line.This is a second line.This is a last line!____(all text is in one line). Help me to get formated text as I input!____I try to use DataDirect Btrieve Driver and INTERSOLV 3.00 32-BIT Btrieve ODBC driver, but result is the same.____Dusan

Edit your c:windows sw.ini file.____Add a section called SPECIAL (you need to surround it in square brackets) and in that section add a line that says:____ASCIIEditor=0____If that setting does not give the desired result, eidt RSW.INI again and in the SPECIAL section add the line:__CharRaw=1____Kathleen__R&R Support

I add a section called SPECIAL in rsw.ini and put only:____ASCIIEditor=0____and when I set "Word Wrap" in Alignment Properties for that memo field everything is OK!____Thanks :-)
