Setting string length in a Type Statement using a VBCrLf

[SteveJR]

Hi,

Can someone please advise if you can set a string length in a Type Statement by using a VBCrLf? For example, instead of

Type exampleType
  myString as String * 100
End Type

Can you do:

Type exampleType
  myString as String Until VBCrLf 'allows for a variable length string terminated by a VBCrLf
End Type

In the above I have used as VBCrLf as the terminating character but I assume you could use any as needed.

Many Thanks

Steve

hi,

use the Split function on the string like

Type exampleType
  myString as String * 100
End Type 
 
'......

myString = split(myString, vbCrLf)(0)
