End-Of-Line for Textfiles

HSchubert

hello folks,

i have to write data to a file with a codeunit. Everything woks but.. :
I used textmode before creating the file.

If i look for the file , the lines are not seperated, one record after another.
Can somebody tell me, how to code the carriage-return-linefeed as last character ?

thanks for your help !
Hermann.

I believe it's character 13. So make a character variable c and set it equal to 13. You might have to Google the ascii code for a carriage return if that's not it, though.

I believe an easier solution to your problem is just to do a WRITELINE with no parameters. That should automatically write a carriage return to the file.

-> If i have a varaible CRLF with the value 13, how to get this into text (FORMAT(CRLF) brings '13'.

-> I didn't find a WRITELINE function for the file, not in the Symbol Menu nor in the C/AL Help.

Thanks
