Hi,

I have a program that creates a text file.

On the Mac the file created reads as expected. But if I pass the .txt file to a PC red it and save it then pass it back to the Mac it has 3 lines of formatting added to the original file.

Could this be normal PC junk or am I doing something wrong?

This might have to do with the fact that a Mac and PC use different line endings

The Mac uses chr(13) and Windows uses chr(13) + chr(10)

Norman,

I'm splitting into an array with chr(13) and that seems to work.

Here's the first three lines;

{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1033{\fonttbl{\f0\fnil Courier New;}}
{\colortbl ;\red0\green0\blue0;}
\viewkind4\uc1\pard\cf1\f0\fs18 EMPLOYEE TIME SHEET\par

I notice that all subsequent lines have a "\par" at the end (I assume that means paragraph).
REALbasic seem to deal with the "\par" but not with the extra lines.

It's an RTF File ?

This is a LOT more work than just a few lines of text _______________________________________________
