Strip Cr/lf

Hi,

 

Great Software!!!

 

I have a quick question. I want to replace carriage returns with a delimiter instead of stripping them because when I strip carriage returns the last word on the first line becomes attached to the first word on the second line (see fig. 1 below). If I could replace carriage returns with a space (but ideally a delimiter) this would be really great!!!

 

Thanks.

Hi,

I guess you will have your answer in astring, so at the appropriate time, say the string is "T1", replace as below; [copy the first quoted code to script editor]

<REM2:Set Environment variable "CRLF" to cr/lf characters><ASCIIC:2:1:10><ASCIIC:3:1:13><TMVAR2:08:03:02:000:000:><TMVAR2:19:03:00:000:000:CRLF><REM2:Replace Environment variable "CRLF" in String T1 with space><TMVAR2:21:01:01:000:000:%CRLF% >
// Set Environment variable "CRLF" to cr/lf characters

Variable Set %T2% to ASCII Char of 10

Variable Set %T3% to ASCII Char of 13

Variable Modify String: Append %T2% to %T3%

Variable Modify String: Save %T3% to Environment Variable

// Replace Environment variable "CRLF" in String T1 with space

Replace "%CRLF%" with " " in %T1%

Best, Randall
