Thank you, Mark. I also don't have a MAC so on that score I was speaking theoretically.

Although I believe Mac OSX uses LF, same as Unix, while Mac OS up to version 9 used CR. Even in the case of plain text, now that files are so readily transferred between systems, most decent text editors cope fine with all 3 formats regardless of which system they're running on. > Do I over complicate the process? For LibreOffice documents, I think you do. What do you do in a document which might be transferred between different systems? Does CHAR(13) in a LibreOffice formula on Mac even have the intended effect of splitting lines? Come to that, does LibreOffice even run on Mac OS 9 or before? I suspect LibreOffice only uses CHAR(10) regardless of OS, although I don't have a Mac (let along one before OSX) to try. On Windows LibreOffice, all that's needed is CHAR(10). CHAR(13) has no apparent effect, other than cluttering the formula.
