How to give carriage return in a text file

[VikramChand]

Hi,

I have written the following code for the carriage return . Can u let me know what is wrong with this. I am not able to get the carriage return sequence after every line is wrtten to the test file.

My code

fopen 10 "c:\test\Log.txt" readappend
strfmt tempstr "TRNSFR|1|0|%-s|%-s|%-s|%-s|%-s" $DATE $TIME $SCRIPTFILE ftobeuploaded filereference
fputs 10 tempstr
fwrite 0 0x0A0D
fclose 10

thanks

You can use this:

fputs 10 "`r"

If you also want to add a linefeed (since you reference 0x0A), you could use:

fputs 10 "`r`n"

instead. Another option is using the TEXT argument in your fopen command, which would cause all file writes via fputs to add the carriage return and line feed automatically.

Thanx for immediate response KNOB. U r the best.

But i figured out the way and fixed the code just after i posted the request.

The bug was

insted of this "fwrite 0 0x0A0D"
i have to write "fwrite 10 0x0A0D"

the file ID i was opening the file is different from the one i was writing.

Any way thanks once again.
