This appears to be a general problem with web services as I've been able to reproduce it with both an ASP.NET client and VFP client:

I am using fread() to populate a string with lines from a file. The string appears to be valid, but loses the line feed characters within the web service. The corresponding string creates one long, ugly line within the web service.

I called the web service as a standard .dll and sent the same string: result was a perfectly formatted string to file.

Any suggestions on what I'm doing incorrectly?

Thanks in advance.
