Subject: Re:parsing txt file - seems unparsable
Is this CF 5 or earlier?
If so, it is probably actually a NULL chr(0) character.
Notepad will get rid of it when you open and save the file.
CF 5 and earlier have trouble with strings containing NULLs,
since it uses NULLs to mark the end of strings (I think).
The data is still in the string, but all of the output string
functions stop at that character.
Solution? I don't have one. This is where Java and Custom Tags
come in handy.

This sounds line an end -f line or carriage return character (or
both)
Do a replace of each [chr(10) & chr(13); replace with white
space or some marker for your illumination "~~~" or whatever ] in the
variable and see if that helps.
Are you SURE it's not in the database, as well? Just kicked down
a line?
