I think you can use \r instead of \n for Access and Excel. -----Original Message----- From: Daniel Kasak [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 26, 2005 4:18 PM To: beginners@perl.org Subject: New Line Character(s)
Greetings. I've got some Perl code that's inserting data into a MySQL, which is later being read & displayed by MS Access. I'm constructing a note, and I'm using: \n for new lines - to break up paragraphs. However, in Access, these \n characters appear as little boxes instead of new lines. What should I use to get Access to display a new line? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
