Carriage Return

[KellyJ]

I have created a fixed-length field report for my customer to submit to their 401(k) administrator, and everything is working great, all fields begin and end in the correct positions, I^m happy. My question is about a carriage return. The 401(k) administrator asks on the report specs that the file be in standard ASCII format, and that a carriage return (crif) is required at the end of a record. I^m sure there is a particular symbol I need to insert on the report, but I have no idea what it is. Any ideas?____I am creating this report using Abra Suite^s version of Report Writer, Abra Suite version 6.17.____Thanks much,__Kelly James

I^m not what R&R puts after each record line when exporting to an Ascii file but you could easily create a calculated field using chr(10)+chr(13) (carriage return + line feed)____Regards,__Randal Ferguson____>I have created a fixed-length field __>report for my customer to __>submit to their 401(k) administrator, __>and everything is working great, __>all fields begin and end __>in the correct positions, I^m __>happy.

Any control code calculation that you place on the report will get stripped out by R&R.____If you choose File Export Text you will have the option of placing a CR once per band or once per line.____Kathleen__R&R Support
