Help with text array and newlines

teeter · 2007-07-17

So I'm trying to have some kind of formatted body in an email I'm generating. I have an array of 6 text objects
EmailBody[1], EmailBody[2], etc.

I want these to be separated by a new line. How can I do this?

I've tried

BodyText := EmailBody[1]+ '\' +EmailBody[2]
BodyText := EmailBody[1]+ '/' +EmailBody[2]
BodyText := EmailBody[1]+ FORMAT(Char13) +FORMAT(Char10)+ +EmailBody[2]

and have also tried using the .AddBodyLine function with no success, as the .NewMessage seems to take priority.

Any thoughts, ideas, solutions?

Thanks in advance,

Joel

do you get an error when you try the slash without the quotes?

Why Add them together?

yeah a \ gives a syntax error, while / is trying to divide

The irony on this one is stifling as I just figured out how to use file paths WITHOUT creating newline #-o

perhaps you can see how it's done in the Format Address Codeunit (365)

WITH BillOfLading DO
  FormatAddr(
    AddrArray,"Ship-to Name","Ship-to Name 2","Ship-to Contact",
    "Ship-to Address","Ship-to Address 2","Ship-to City",
    "Ship-to ZIP Code","Ship-to State","Ship-to Country Code");

Even tho all these field are in an array , they print on seperate lines using the comma
EmailBody[1],EmailBody[2],EmailBody[3],EmailBody[4],etc

Look at COMPRESSARRAY in the c/side help for more info

I checked out the code unit, but IIRC its used in reporting, and you still have a text box for each element....however,

:oops:
I forgot to assign
Char13 :=- 13;
Char10 := 10;

worked like a charm #-o

Thanks for the help!

its sooooo time for a beer
