Import txt Files more than 1 lines

bangswit

hi all...
if we want to import txt file using dataport but I have more than I lines
how do i import that?
this is the sample data :
SHR ED 93AEAN007ORDERS0
HDRORDERS E1020

this is 1 record
I'm using fixed format dataport
I confused about StartPos

You cannot do it through dataport in standard way. You will need to read it line by line and parse it yourself. But you can use codeunit for reading the file too... Dataport is not able to read more lines as one record and parse it automatically...

do you have sample like that?

Using FILE data type variable to read the file... you know how to use FILE data type, aren't you? ;-)

and what is the code for ENTER ??
i use ascii code no 13
but the result is like this (the bold one) --> SHR|PARTNER1|E1|1|ORDERS|Test|1|2|3|4|5|6|6|||

You need to use TextMode on the file...
