replace carriage return with \&lf;
How do I replace a carriage return character from an excel cell?
This is how I assign the cell contents:
xComments = Cells(CurrRow, 5)
the cell can contian:
This is just a test of
carriage returns issue
on Batch Insert/Update
I need to replace the carriage return with \&lf;
so this way when the contents of the excel sheet are written to a script that will perform a insert, the contents would still read the same way:
This is just a test of
carriage returns issue
on Batch Insert/Update

In a cell it uses the vertical tab as I think its called anyway NOT vbcrlf but char(10)-sheet or CHR(10)-vba
xComments = Trim$(Replace(Cells(CurrRo
Chris
xComments = Trim$(Replace(Cells(CurrRo
Chris
Also just confirmed the constant associated with chr(10) is vblf i.e. if you prefer:
xComments = Trim$(Replace(Cells(CurrRo
Chris
xComments = Trim$(Replace(Cells(CurrRo

Hi Chris,
You are right I was using the wrong constant. I found that out on the post made by Darius on this forum:http://www.developerfusion.com/forum/thread/23605/
One question, would that line still work when the white square is found in one of the cells?
Is there a way to check the text string for carriage return or the white square, or a line feed within an if statement and apply the appropriate formatting?
Thank you.

GAme-master,
I think you will find the question was already answered at the second post and confirmed in the fourth one, it is as such awaiting the author closure.

Chris...
I used chr(13) and I think none of the post states it though...
If the question already answered, my apology though...

I am giving game-mster 50 points for taking the time to look at the question and offer a legit solution. I hope this does not upset you Chris.
Thank you very much for your help.

For why could I be upset ... they are your points to do with as you please. My comment earlier to game-master was because vbcr = chr(13) and vblf=chr(10).
However the use of the chr method was new information in the post so whilst less clear in terms of what it was doing it was a reasonable alternative approach and as such it is fair that you rewarded the information hence "for why could I be upset"
See you around
