How to insert a line break in a StringVar in Crystal Reports
i have simply used following code for line break
"This formula field " + ChrW(13) + " contains a line break!"
It may not be much of an improvement, but you could build a string-formatting, custom function:
// sf()
Function (Stringvar text)
Stringvar Array keys := ["\n"];
Stringvar Array values := [Chr(10)+Chr(13)];
Numbervar i;
For i := 1 to Ubound(keys) do (
text := Replace(text, keys[i], values[i])
);
text;
//{@ text}
sf("line 1 \n line 2")
This would offer you some extensibility should you need to support additional escape sequences.
I've found a functional, albeit not code aesthetical, solution:
StringVar s := "line 1" + chr(10) + chr(13) + "line 2";
