Notes
ReplaceLineEndings does a global search-and-replace for the end of line characters in SourceString using the specified line ending as the replacement string. The search automatically recognizes Windows, Macintosh, and Unix line endings. Use this function to make multiline (or multi-paragraph) text compatible across platforms. The easiest way to specify the replacement line ending is with the EndOfLine class.
Sample code
This example replaces the line endings in the text in a TextField with Windows line endings.
Dim s As String
s = ReplaceLineEndings(TextField1.Text, EndOfLine.Windows)
Compatibility
All project types on all supported operating systems.
