String manipulation... quick question

I've got a string value that wraps onto two lines...

Example:
"Welcome to
my site"

What I want:
"Welcome to my site"

How can I manipulate this string so that it gets "fixed" to one line? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
- Sam
 
Hi,

You have a line feed character embedded in the string
Code:
Function StripCRLF(MyString As String) as String
sOut = ""
for i = 1 to len(MyString)
  sByte = mid(MyString, i,1)
  select case sByte
   case vbLf, vbCr
     sOut = sOut & " "
   case Else
     sOut = sOut & sByte
  end select
  StripCRLF = sOut
next
hope this helps :)

dim test as string
test = Replace(test, vbLf & vbCr, " ")
or
test = replace(Replace(test, vbLf, ""),vdCr, "")
