Writing text to a word document (word 2007) using the zipfile module via python coding (python 2.7). Below if the section of code I am using to do this. I can't figure out what character I need to use to get it to add new lines to the zipfile.
if Count: blurb = "\r\nINSERT TABLE HERE\r\n\r\nSA* - South America\r\nNA** - North America\r\nCA*** - Central America" else: blurb = "" further down I also have the following code (a small snippet of actual code for clarification) replaceText = {"TEXTBLURB" : blurb} Right now "if Count" is true, the output in the word document looks like this: INSERT TABLE HERE SA* - South America NA** - North America CA*** - Central America I want it too look like this: INSERT TABLE HERE SA* - South America NA** - North America CA*** - Central America I have a MS Word template file called "Automated Response.docx" that has a TAG imbedded between two paragraphs called "TEXTBLURB". Using a python script, if a certain condition is met, I want to replace this tag with some text (see above "blurb") that contains newlines, otherwise, don't add the text between paragraphs. I can't figure out the python code needed to imbed newlines into the tag. Ideas as to how to add new lines via python coding? I tried \r, \n, \r\n, ^11 and . None worked. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
