Hi!
I have written a little class in .NET to convert a DataTable or a
dataView to a comma-delimited text file. This file eventually gets
imported in Excel or Word.
Everything works great, I handled commas and quotes and Excel reads my
files correctly. I have one little problem, though... If a field in the
datatable has a carriage return in it, it gets written to the text file
(of course) and Excel things it's the start of a new record.
Is there a special character I can replace the CR with so Excel knows
that it is not a new record but a CR inside a field?
Thank you!

Carl,
Try replacing CRLF (hex OD OA) with just the line feed character (hex 0A).

It didn't work unfortunately. Do you have any other idea?

Carl,
I'm using Excel from office XP and it did work for me. However, I would
expect it should work for all version of Excel. What you can do to get the
format of the file correct is to examine a CSV file that Excel creates
itself. Create an Excel sheet with a cell that has a carriage return in it,
(To do this use the ALT+Enter key combo while editing) and then in the SAVE
AS dialog box change the file type to CSV. Examine the file using a hex
editor.
Hope this helps,
William.

My strings were separated by OA, just as you suggested.

Hi,
I've read a book on C, and I understand how comma operators work, but
my book didn't say that the comma operators between function arguments
were not really comma operators (even though it seems obvious to me
that comma operators would serve no purpose between function
arguments). As per C, are those commas in function argument lists the
same comma operators?
Also, are the =s used in initializations the same as any other

Hi,
In case of following expression:
c = a && --b;
if a is 0,b is not evaluated and c directly becomes 0.
Does this mean that && operator is given a higher precedence over
'--'operator?
as opposed to what is mentioned in precedence table?
Also,
with comma operator.

Hi,
How can I pass a semicolon or a comma as a macro argument.
I wish to build an expression that in some cases has a comma - eg
building a list of members for a structure, but in other instances has
a comma - eg building a list of arguments for a function.

In 5.3.3.4 of the standard, the standard provides that "The lvalue-to-
rvalue(4.1), array-to-pointer(4.2),and function-to-pointer(4.3)
standard conversions are not applied to the operand of sizeof."
I think this rule is easy to understand. Because I can find the
contexts of applying the rule as follows.
(1)
int* p = 0;
int b1 = sizeof(*p); // OK, b1 = 4, *p would not be evaluated.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
