Hi

Is it possible to create "line breaks" (like saying /n or something) in the Description and Comments Field through a script?

I want to convert and to line breaks, so that text in paragraphs on a webpage doesn't end up as one long paragraph in AMC.

in the code the linebreak is the ASCII value of the character, so newline & carriage return :

Code: Select all

value := atext + #13#10 + anothertext

If you want to replace the and you can do this :

Code: Select all

value := StringReplace(value, '<br>', #13#10);
value := StringReplace(value, '<p>', #13#10#13#10);

(here you'll get an double line break for tag)
