Using STRTRAN() to Add Carriage Returns to ASCII File (117219)

This article was previously published under Q117219 SUMMARY
In FoxPro for Macintosh, the COPY TO TYPE DELIMITED command creates a
delimited ASCII file, with each record terminated by a linefeed only. Some
programs require a carriage return as the record terminator. If the ASCII
file is placed in a memo field with APPEND MEMO, the STRTRAN() function can
be used to replace the linefeed character with a carriage return character.
COPY MEMO can then be used to create a new file with carriage returns.
