[RESOLVED] Wrap Character

[Paytor]

Hello!
I read line by line (line input) the data of a file stored in (C and then put it
in a RichTextBox. I have some questions!

1)What is a Wrap Character?
2)What is the meaning of this line
Wrap$ = Chr$(13) + Chr$(10)

Thank's!

It's quite useless - you can use vbCrLf or better vbNewLine built in constants instead but that's basically what that variable means.

Thank's. But why the numbers 13 and 10 in the sentences Chr$(13) + Chr(10)??? What do they represent?

[bushmobile]

they represent Carriage Return (13) and Line Feed (10) - if you don't know what either of those are then see if you can get someone to dig out a typewriter for you (or google them)

They are ASCII character codes - 13 is for "Carraige Return" and 10 is "Line Feed". Together they act as a 'move to a new line' marker (like pressing Enter in Notepad).

Wrap$ will contain exactly the same as vbCrLf or vbNewLine, but will waste memory and processor time.

Thank's a lot to all of you!
