Off-Topic Visual Basic Carriage Return on text output?

Yahoo Archive

Sarah,
I don't know about visual basic, but other programming tools allow you to
concatenate carriage return, line feed similar to this:
Define a variable CRLF = Char(13) + Char(10) ; this will create an
string value of Carriage return, line feed.

If orbit > .0143 then ( "G4837Y" + CRLF + "H35583" + CRLF + "GE837Y")

Hope this helps,
Jim Stetter

Subject: [Vantage] Off-Topic Visual Basic Carriage Return on text output?



I know this is really far off-topic, but I am still hoping one of the
programming guru's on this list will be able to help me. I am trying to
return text from an if, then statement in visual basic and I need to test
to
be multiple lines long. For example, If Orbit > .0143 then Rough =
"N13659"
[carriage Return] "H3583" [Carriage return] "G4837Y"

So the output I would be lines of text as follows:

N13659
H3583
G4837Y

I cannot figure out how to put a carriage return in there. Does anybody
know?

Thanks so much for any feedback.

add chr(13)+chr(10) into the string

a \n within the quotes will carriage return to the next line.
example.... "H3583\n"
i'm not sure exactly what you're trying to do in your program though....are
you trying to assign the variable Rough the string values of N13659, H3583,
and G4837Y ? if that's the case i don't know if the \n will work.
