Line Terminators using streamwriter.writeline

[Lyle A. Sieren]

I posted this earlier with another question but did not explain myself well... How do get a line feed character on the end of a line using the streamwriter.writeline fuction? Following are a list of possible terminators. I need to use the line feed, option 2, instead of the others for the application that will be reading the file.

LineTerminator ::=
1. < Unicode carriage return character (0x000D) > |
2. < Unicode line feed character (0x000A) > |
3. < Unicode carriage return character > < Unicode line feed character > |
4. < Unicode line separator character (0x2028) > |
5. < Unicode paragraph separator character (0x2029) >

Lyle,

I thought that I answered that to you, why do you open a new thread instead
of asking for some more clarification if you don't understand my answer.

Instead of calling 'WriteLine', call 'Write' and add the line separators
yourself:

\\\
sw.Write(Line & ControlChars.Lf)
///

Hi,

Have you tried to set StreamWriter.NewLine property?

Errata:

As Dragon says, the 'StreamReader''s 'NewLine' property is the way to go...
