>You're right of course. The reason why it doesn't show with CHRTRAN() is that the "|" character is only replaced with CHR(13).
Why is it that a chr(13) only shows the line after the cr?
? "abc" + Chr(13) + "123"
123
? "abc" + Chr(10) + "123"
abc
123
? "abc" + Chr(13) + "123" + Chr(13) + "efg"
efg
? "abc" + Chr(10) + "123" + Chr(10) + "efg"
abc
123
efg

In Rome, there was a poem.
About a dog, who found two bone.
He lick the one, he lick the other.
He went pyscho, he drop dead!
