[DUG] MS Word replacement text

Its a long sho, but one usually does a <CR><LF> and nobody has suggested the combination of   #13#10 or CHR(13) CHR(10) which are the ASCII values associated with each in that order.

  Very weird. A hex editor shows 0d as a new line if I press enter in Word, but after replacing text with a 0d in it with code, the (new) new line doesn't work. Viewing the new document in hex shows the 0d there, it just doesn't do anything.

   

  Very confusing.

  in version word 97-2003 it is just #13.. new version is some encoded XML structure that you cant read.

  I would open a word document with a Hex editor, and see how they terminate a line.. its normally rich text.. so /n or some other command is more likely than an actual CRLF..

    Have you tried using just #10 (or is it just #13)

    I'm working with Word templates, replacing markers with text. I'm having trouble with new lines in the text, i.e. I want a new line, but the Word document doesn't want to play. I have tried #13#10, but this just puts two spaces in the text.

     

    Is there another code I need to use to force a new line?

     

    Regards,

    Dave.
