Good points Bill. I was aware that my solution wasn't going to work across platforms. I added the CRLF comment to try and highlight that, but it would have been more considerate of me to make the example portable.
My only excuse was that we had no idea of the format of the source file so whatever conversion routine I used would probably have to be replaced anyway! -----Original Message----- From: bill lam <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, 17 August 2009 17:31 To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Jprogramming] batch viewmat?
