yes, it is a newline character. The problem is that if i do a search and replace, i will be replacing the newline at the end of the line for the row that was exported and i don't want that. i just want to remove the newline character inside the string in the column. I am considering just doing a perl script for this.
Thanks.

remove newline character from field in exported table
I am trying to export the resultset of a query to a character delimited file. I am using the wizard for this. However, one of the fields is 512 characters long and it accepts from form address. It looks like the field contains newlines, but when i look at the resultset in DB2 i don't see any newline characters, only after i copy it and then paste it to notepad or textpad. When i export the table, this field contains several newline characters.... -

Well, Right you are. I finally realized that and have now just created a bunch of controls i need and just turn them on and off (visible) as i wish. I found a solution in this site for my problem of moving the labels to the required positions on the fly. But what i was hoping to do was to create a variable but limited number of text boxes depending on the requirements. Thanks.Leave a comment:

creating controls:text boxes, labels on a report on the fly, runtime.
I have created a report in design mode. However, some of the fields i need are dynamic. That is, i have a series of fields text boxes mostly that must show up only as needed. I also have some labels that also should dynamic depending on the text boxes. I first tried createReportcon trol during the OnOpen event for the report,and when i tried to run it, it would give me an error 2147, that i must be in design view in order to create or delete... -

format a column in excel from Access using VB
I need to format a column in excel but would like to do it from Access using VB. I have hacked around and found a few ways to get to the workbook but have a problem getting to the sheet i want. But, how do i format a cell in excel from Access using VB? I have most of my vb code in access but i am running into some formatting difficulties on the excel side and want to keep all my code under Access. Thanks. -
I will give it a try. Regarding your question, i am not sure. I actually need to perform the operation on one table. I merely put the records i wanted to get the data from in another table. But what i want is to update one column in one row from another column in another row based on the content of three rows which either match or partially match each other. I hope this makes sense. The table i am working on is not indexed and has no keys....Leave a comment:
