Yep and CHR(12) as that's a form feed. I'm actually just checking for anything that's ASCII value is less than 32 to make sure I get them all.

>You would want to check data used to create file because file itself will include CrLf as EOL

Ok I don't know what you mean by that. I created the file myself using FWRITE - what is CrLf? isnt' that chr(10)?

What I'm finding is that every line ends with CHR(13) CHR(10) .....which is what I wanted to do and the line this guy claims has some other thing at the end of it doesn't look any different to me than all the other lines. I really think he just might of made a mistake but I really don't wanna tell him that unless I'm like 1000% sure I've checked the file myself properly..hahahaha

Of course I open the file with wordpad or ultraedit or whatever I don't see that problem. However before I say "I don't think so" I want to be sure this isn't happening. Perhaps one of the data-fields I'm grabbing has this in it.
