<QUOTE>
I've been advised that on a number of sites I have updated - one table in particular is now confused.



Collector windows which read in the file and display its various records - show blank fields.



If we edit the particular record from the command line, it thinks it is in DOS format.



If we do a Shift F8 (Convert to DOS Format) then we do a Shift F8 again (convert to REV format), then it becomes accessible and legible again and usuable via the collector windows.



What have I inadvertantly trigerred to make it do this?



Thanks in Advance

The question is - how do I fix it?

or



Shift F8 should toggle between @FM and CRLF delimited. You can check which delimiter is in use via Shift F7 (one vs two character delimiters). Just F9 it when it is @FM delimited.
