Send email not adding CR/LF

[John Fligg]

I am using strings (16384) to build my message text but when I send email the incoming text is shown as one continuous line without the CR/LF.

In other words, on my memory form I have a string field which is type 'text'. I enter the message but it is received as one long string. I was using a Memo filed but changed that as I thought that would cause problems.

I am baffled why this should be. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks

You must define your CR/LF as ascii values, i.e. <13,10>.

if it's coming in as one long string (as per your other thread) then it's not that surprising it's going out as one long string as well....

Soory must have misled you Bruce. I check the calue of ThisSendEMail.MessageText just prior to the send and there are new paragraphs in there. Hopefully the latest release fixes that.

Thanks

Rob - sorry I think you missed the point. I have no control over the CR,LF format.

It is the user entering text into a Text box (defined as a String) so pressing Enter on their keyboard enters whatever code is required.

The string just prior to sending appears to have CR/LF added but when received no CR/LF appears to be present. As if they have been stripped out.
