[RESOLVED] Windows 10 and vbNewLine

[Ellis Dee]

Is there any issue with using vbNewLine on Windows 10 technical preview?

I've written a utility for an online game meant for wide distribution, so opted for pure VB6 to give the widest compatibility. So far so good: Everyone and their brother can download and run it without issue, no installation needed for anyone. Just unzip and double-click the exe.

The one issue I've run across is that the output seems to add a bunch of extra blank lines for someone who is using the Windows 10 technical preview. I'm just wondering if maybe it handles vbNewLine differently and I should switch to vbCrLf?

The program is a character planner for Dungeons and Dragons Online, and the output is created by adding each line to a string array and then combining them at the end with Join(array, vbNewLine). Speed was a consideration, and that seemed faster than a long series of concatenations.

EDIT: You can see the "finished" program here, with sample correct output in post #2. A sample of the bugged Windows 10 output can be seen here. The problem only seems to occur when there are multiple blank lines right after each other, in which case extras get added.

I'm happy to provide a download for the complete source code if requested. I plan to post it anyway, but was hoping to wait until I got to a stable version 1.0 before posting it.
