I just checked HELP in A97 and A2K and could find no reference to vbNewLine
in A2K. I found it in HELP A97. I tested and can use in both. I can't
test past 97. Below is the help from 97...Hope it helps. Not sure why the
or here(vbNewLine Chr(13) + Chr(10) or Chr(13))
Thanks,
Mark A. Matte
The following constants are defined in the Visual Basic for Applications
type library and can be used anywhere in your code in place of the actual
values:
Constant Equivalent Description
vbCrLf Chr(13) + Chr(10) Carriage returnlinefeed combination
vbCr Chr(13) Carriage return character
vbLf Chr(10) Linefeed character
vbNewLine Chr(13) + Chr(10) or Chr(13) Platform-specific new line character;
whichever is appropriate for current platform
vbNullChar Chr(0) Character having value 0
vbNullString String having value 0 Not the same as a zero-length string
(""); used for calling external procedures
vbTab Chr(9) Tab character
vbBack Chr(8) Backspace character
vbFormFeed Chr(12) Not useful in Microsoft Windows
vbVerticalTab Chr(11) Not useful in Microsoft Windows
