Add a carriage return in a Unbound String Field

Post Author: Razzle00
CA Forum: Formula
Hi,
How can I add a carriage return to an unbound string field in a crystal report. I am using the bundled version of CR with MS Visual Studio 2003 & 2005. My formula needs to look something like this....
'Heading One:' + CARRIAGE RETURN + trim({tablename.fld_1}) + CARRIAGE RETURN + 'Heading Two:' + CARRIAGE RETURN + trim({tablename.fld_2})
this code all needs to be in 1 unbound string field. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Razzle

To add a carriage return, add CHRW(13)
For example:
'Heading One:' & chrw(13) & 'sample text';
will result in:
Heading One:
sample text

How to include a carriage return in a TestStand string variable

Is there anyway to add a carriage return to a TestStand string variable. I am sending commands to an instrument using the Rs232 serial bus and they need to be terminated with a carriage return ie "\r". I know you can creat a DLL and return the string variables to TestStand but is there a beter way ?

Hi Paul,
Sorry about that, just noticed I left off the "" in my last response.
Try "\\r". that should solve it.

How do I add a carriage return to the output ?

I have a listBox with 15 values. That list box is connected to a textBox. The text box prints only the selected items from the listBox (thanks try67 for the help getting that set up). Now what I would like to do is have each of the items that are selected to appear seperately in lieu of having one lone continuous line. I think what I need to do is add a carriage returne (or two) between each item selected. Here is the code I have for custom calculation script
var v = this.getField("DiagnosisList").value;
if (typeof v=="string") event.value = v;
else event.value = v.join(", ");
I triend adding /r/n but I keep geting syntax error. Thanks for any assistane.

I appreciate you assistance, but this is not going to work. The narrative on the listBox for each item is so large, that it either gets chopped off or if I set the text size to auto it is too small. Is there a way to display the list items in a format that 'wraps'? If not then I will neet to set it up with check boxes now, but here is how the format should work:
() item one
() item two
() item three
then allow certain ones to be checked,
(x) itme one
() item two
(x) item three
and based on the ones checked, those are the only ones that print
Item one.
Item two.

Possible to add the Carriage Return Character

Hi all,
I need to add the Carriage Return characters at the end of the each paragraphs. I found the insertTextAsContent (using: {String | SpecialCharacters} , position: XMLElementPosition), but don't know how to use this function. I think in this method accept only the position as XML Element Object.
How to use this function to achieve my task?.
Using: InDesign CS4/Javascript/Windows.
Regards,

you could do: string += "\r";
\r is a carriage return, and \n is a newline

GREP to Add a Carriage Return at End of Paragraph

The following search criteria adds a return at the beginning of a paragraph
Find
^.
Change to:
~b$0
Now I want to instad add a carriage return at the end of the paragraph instead, so I changed my search criteria as shown below, but never get the carriage return. How do I add a carriage return to the end of a pararagh?
Find
\z
Change to:
~b

Peter
Thanks for your help. I want to create a new, empty paragraph so I can apply a different paragraph style to it than the paragraph style used in the preceding paragraph. Once I have that, I will cut and paste text into the new paragraph that uses the just applied paragraph style.
Or perhaps more simply, move text that already has a paragraph style applied to it into a new location, but first have that new location set up with the correct paragraph style so that the formatting is not lost.
Hope that makes sense.

Inserting carriage returns in a concatenated string

Hi.....
Does anyone know how to insert carriage returns within a concatenated string in a sql statement?
i.e. Select 'John'||'Smith' from dual
I'm trying to return:
John
Smith
as opposed to John Smith
Thanks,
~Christine

As suggested chr(10) is what you need, but it's not carriage return, but line feed, carriage return is chr(13). See the difference :
TEST@db102 SQL> select 'John'||chr(10)||'Smith' from dual;
'JOHN'||CH
John
Smith
TEST@db102 SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1* select 'John'||chr(13)||'Smith' from dual
TEST@db102 SQL> /
'JOHN'||CH
Smith
TEST@db102 SQL>

Need to add a carriage return in Paragraph styles

Hi. I am in a muddle. I have a large amount of data from an xml source. I need to quickly add carriage returns appropriately throughout it so that the paragraph styles can be differentiated.I am using tags manually mapped to styles to do this.
In order to carriage returns am I right in thinking that I can add a GREP style to each para style, and that it will sense the end of the para through the end marker position of each tag? If this is so, what would the GREP expressionlook like to that I can automate locating the end of a tag/para style so that I can add ~b to it?
Gratefully!

Hi @chantal_diva arts,
It seems to be difficult, because you have much more invinsible character than only the xml markers in your document.
I think one good way could be @obi-wan Kenobis way.
Perhaps you can upload an example idml on a file hoster of your choise (e.g. xup.in).
Regardless, you can try the following:
1. text search:
<FEFF>
replace with:
2. grep search:
(?<=\b##)(.)
replace with:
\r$1
3. clean document
grep search:
#+
replace with:
(nothing) an empty replace field

Using a Macro to add a Carriage Return after each data entry within all cells of an imported range of cells

I have a macro that copies data from a Target workbook then pastes the data into a destination workbook. I then wish to use lookups in the destination workbook to view specific data from the pasted range of data on a separate sheet.
The problem is, the cells that contain numbers from the pasted data have the green dogeared error flags associated with the cell. The only way I can make a lookup function work, is to go to each cell and manually enter a carriage return after each entry.
The code for the macro is given below. What can be done so that the pasted data contains no errors associated with the number cells? Or can a second macro be written to clean the data. If so can you help me out? Thanks in advance.
Kindest Regards
Sub ImportData()
' ImportData Macro allows user to select an Excel workbook (i.e. Orchestrate Excel Output),
' then copy & paste it into the MediaSpreadsheet.
    Dim wbk As Workbook

    If wbk Is Nothing Then

Hi DAPAugust64,
The green "dogeared error flags" of the cells means that you paste numbers in these cells, but they're formated as Text.
So you need to change the cells back to the correct format so that the lookup function works fine. You can simply call this method after pasting:
ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1).NumberFormat = "General"
ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) = ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1).Text
Or use PasteSpecial method to paste the numbers as well as it's format:

Pdfs created on my iMac add hidden carriage returns after each word

Hello Community,
This problem exists on my iMac but not my wife's Powerbook.
Whenever I created a pdf from Preview by printing and then selecting "save as pdf" I got a lovely looking pdf which I could send to anyone and they could view just fine. However, if I or anyone else selected text from that pdf and pasted it into any other program, it came out with an exclamation point instead of the space between words which is, needless to say, quite undesirable. Searching around, one thing that was suggested was clearing the font cache so I did this (several times). It did indeed make a difference: now instead of exclamation points a carriage return appears after every word! Once again the pdf looks just fine, but when you copy and paste text from the pdf into any other text program this happens.
So then I downloaded Adobe Acrobat (the one month fully functional trial program) and made pdfs with this program to see if that was the problem but, no, the same thing occurs. So it really seems to be a strange glitch in my iMac and my system?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
---Norm

There is no Flash player version 15... as in your code:
<param name="swfversion" value="15.0.0.0" />
For some reason Adobe thought it would be a good idea to target a Flash player version (15) as default.....which may be out a couple years in the future. Go figure!!!
If you don't like player version 9, change to 10 or 11.... just not 15 (yet).

Can I generate a CR (Carriage Return) in a dynpro entry field ?

My problem is the following
I have a card reader and the information of this card will go into a SAP dynpro entry field.
Now I need an addition CR (Carriage Return)
Is that possible ?
Thanks

Basically this card reader is nothing more than any other barcode scanning or otherwise, so here is what I'm thinking. At my old company, we had a bunch of barcode scanners which connected directly with SAP, the user would scan the barcode and it would put the value directly in the dynpro field. This was great, but the user had to then hit enter. There was no way for us to control this on the ABAP side. We then discovered that in the barcode reader itself, there is some configuration around what is called a "postamble". This is a keystroke which is fired automatically when a barcode is scanned, or maybe when a card is swiped? Check your terminal and see if their is such a setting or configuration.

How to handle carriage return/linefeed embedded in text field as first char

Hi,
I am trying to use sqlldr to import text that is comma-separated and double quote-enclosed, but contains embedded carriage return/linefeed pairs. I have a control file which works for most cases and looks like this:
LOAD DATA
INFILE './foo.new'
APPEND
CONTINUEIF LAST PRESERVE (<>'"')
INTO TABLE <tablename>
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "," ENCLOSED BY '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
Unfortunately, this fails when the very first character of the text field is a carriage return/linefeed pair, e.g.,:
"11","22","33","\r\nThis is the fourth field","","","","",""
In that case, what is actually the opening double-quote for the fourth field, is interpreted by the CONTINUEIF clause as the end of that line. Can anyone please point me to a solution?
thanks.
stan.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I've already tried it, and it doesn't help. I believe the problem is that sqlldr tries to figure out where each record is delimited before it parses out the field. So, any field-level trimming depends on sqlldr first determining that the cr/lf is actually part of that record, and not an indication of the start of a new record (and it's doing the latter right now). Fwiw, Python's csv parser will handle this type of record just fine.

Add a carriage return in a .csv file

I running the following command which works but I would like to format the output in the CSV file. The "SecondaryAddresses" field is where my issue is. The field contains multiple addresses as such:
{[email protected], [email protected], [email protected]}
Current output in .csv file.
Desired output in .csv file.
I want to be able to add a return into the .csv file so the data is in one cell.
Get-Mailbox jblake -DomainController "DC01" -ResultSize Unlimited | Select-Object DisplayName,alias,PrimarySmtpAddress, @{Name=“SecondaryAddresses”;Expression={$_.EmailAddresses | Where-Object {$_.PrefixString -ceq “smtp”} | ForEach-Object
{$_.SmtpAddress}}}
Chris

I think that is still not quite there, it is missing the filter on PrefixString.
Get-Mailbox jblake -DomainController "DC01" -ResultSize Unlimited | Select-Object DisplayName,alias,PrimarySmtpAddress, @{Name=“SecondaryAddresses”;Expression={($_.EmailAddresses | Where-Object {$_.PrefixString -ceq "smtp"}).SmtpAddress -join "`n"}}
Enclosing $_.EmailAddresses | Where-Object {$_.PrefixString -ceq "smtp"} in parenthesis lets us use the dot operator on the array that it returns. Accessing a property on an array that is actually a property on each of the objects in the array
should return an array of those property values (an array of SmtpAddresses), which we can then -join with the newline character. Note that this feature of arrays was added in v3.0 so in case you're on an older version this wouldn't work.
I also don't have the Exchange cmdlets, so I unfortunately I cannot test it either.

HT4977 The reported solution does not work (add two carriage returns).

When setting up my gmail account as an exchange accounts message which are only signed, are not validly signed. There is an smile.p7s attachment which isn't recognised as a valid signature.
Some users report this is caused by a bad implementation of the Active Sync protocol in iOS, which isn't using the approptiate commands.
Does anybody have a workaround?

Hi,
Did you find any solution to your issue?
I am also having similar kind of issue. If you can guide me on this. I am describing my issue below:
I need to add verification for field dock door of tcode LM05 using user exit MWMRF302.
I have created 9302 screen in program SAPLXLRF and deleted ok_code from it, changed it to sub-screen.
Then i have created a new entry in the spro (screen management) with screen variant 1.
But i am unable to understand what code i need to write in EXIT_SAPLLMOB_520 so that verification of that particular field will take place.
Also, do i need to code both EXIT_SAPLLMOB_210 and EXIT_SAPLLMOB_520?
Can you please help me with this.
Thanks,
Archana
