How do you write records with carriage return and line feeds? I'm trying to create a comma delimited file with about 1000 records.

Thanks

If the total size will be less than 64K use OSWRITE, if greater use OSOPEN, OSBWRITE and OSCLOSE. These are docced in the AREV manuals. To append carriage return linefeed to a variable use \0D0A\ for example

DosRow := MyVariable : \0D0A\

Or if you are exporting records from a file use the Export Menu and choose Ascii. Press Ctrl-F1 for help.
