MAPI call and Carrige Return

McLean · 2000-07-27

I need to generate a list of items and send this via outlook. The email connection works fine but I cannot send a carrige return/new line with each text item. I have tried asc(10) and chr(10) but Navision sees these as undeclared variables. The following also doesn't work.
CR is declared as type character.
CR:=10;
Body3:='Software Package :' + "Misc. Article Information".Description + ' Client/Project: '+CR;

Any suggestions?

Thanks, but no matter how I code it I get the following:
SOFTWARE: MS Project; Client/Project:CHR(13)SOFTWARE: Navision; Client/Project: CHR(13)SOFTWARE: Visio; Client/Project: CHR(13)SOFTWARE: MS Project; Client/Project:CHR(13)SOFTWARE: Dream Weaver; Client/Project:CHR(13)

As you can see the CHR(13) appears as a literal.

I use the following code and it works just fine:

char10 := 10;
OutlContactItem.Body := 'CustomNo: ' + "No." + FORMAT(char10) + 'This is line 2';

with char10 being a variable of type Char.

My code looks like this:

char10:=10;
Body3:='Software Package :' + "Misc. Article Information".Description + ' Client/Project: '+FORMAT(char10)+' ';

MAPIMessages.MsgNoteText := Body + Body2 + Body3;

I see you are using OutlContactItem.Body

You have to use "FORMAT(CR)"

Var
CRLF : Text[2]
Begin
CRLF[1] := 13;
CRLF[2] := 10;
OutlContactItem.Body := 'CustomNo: ' + "No." + CRLF + 'This is line 2' + CRLF;
End;

Thanks Luc and fabian,
Both your suggestions work. I was doing something really stupid. I kept modify a section of code which wasn't being called so the changes had no effect!!
