Function HardCR() | Xbase++

Replaces soft returns in a character string with hard returns.

HardCR( <cString> ) --> cString

<cString> is a character string in which soft returns (Chr(141)+Chr(10)) are replaced with hard returns (Chr(13)+Chr(10)).

HardCR() returns a copy of <cString> in which all Chr(141) characters are replaced with Chr(13) characters.

When a long character string is edited using the function MemoEdit(), it automatically formats the string by inserting soft returns (Chr(141)+Chr(10)). These soft returns can be replaced before storing the character string and must be replaced before their output. The function HardCR() replaces the soft returns with hard returns (Chr(13)+Chr(10)). MemoTran() is a similar function which replaces soft returns with characters other than Chr(13)+Chr(10).

HardCR()

// In the example, Chr(141)+Chr(10) in a memo field 
// is replaced before display with Chr(13)+Chr(10)
