Prevent \r\n in CEditView

[kogg]

Hello

I have a CEditView in a splitterWindow when I hit the return key the data in the windows is captured in the OnChar(...) message handler using GetWindowText(..).

My problem is when I clear the window using SetWindowText("") it leaves a \r\n which is not what I intended. Its making my head bleed, does anyone know how to rid this \r\n.

Thanks

You can GetWindowText into a CSTring Variable, myVar and use CString's function Trim() to remove the extra variables or use the Replace() to replace them with white space

[blue]
CString myVar;
myEdit.GetWindowText(myVar);
myVar.Trim("\r\n");  [green]// OR myVar.Replace("\r\n","");[/green]
myEdit.SetWindowText(myVar); [/blue]

Hope that helps!
