Observations on Carriage Return, Line Feed getting stripped out of Mail Messages

1 New Member
I've observed various posts here and elsewhere concerning CRLFs getting stripped out of programatically generated emails. This behavior is evident when the email is viewed using various versions of Microsoft Outlook.

Outlook displays a message like "Extra line breaks in this message were removed".

I've had the same problem for a long time, and found a solution quite by accident. Ensuring that each line ends with a period (.) prior to the CRLF characters appears to convince Outlook that there should indeed be a line break included.

I have a VBA function that returns a string including "vbcr" (VB Carriage Return) to seperate a list into multiple rows, eg Item1 & vbcr & Item2 & vbcr & Item3 This works as planned in the immediate window, producing a list where a Carriage Return follows each item. But when I output the result into either an Access query or form, instead of carriage returns I get little square symbols between each of the items. Is anyone able to tell...

We have address fields stored in a text field for our ERP system and some of them have an extra carriage return and line feed at the end of them. This causes havoc when we sync between our ERP system and CRM system. If anyone knows a way to solve this problem the help would be appreciated. Examples:...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
