strReplance remove linebreaks

[PuzzledGreatly]

I have a text file with one word a line. How to change the selected text so that I end up with one line with the words separated by a comma and a space. I've tried doing a strReplace using "`n" but although I can add commas and spaces I can't remove the actual linebreaks so I still end up with one word a line. How to remove the linebreaks, thanks.

Hi.
As StrReplace(...) turns back a value, you have to assign this to a variable as shown below:

Code: Select all

myText := strReplace(myText, "`n", "`,")

Maybe you have to delete all `r if they are present. Then you can combine like below:

Code: Select all

myText := strReplace(strReplace(myText, "`n", "`,"), "`r")

- Try this perhaps:

Code: Select all

vText := "a`r`nb`r`nc"
MsgBox, % vText
vText := StrReplace(vText, "`r`n", ", ")
MsgBox, % vText

- To investigate the text you can try this:

Code: Select all

vText := "a`r`nb`r`nc"
vText := StrReplace(vText, "`r", "_R")
vText := StrReplace(vText, "`n", "N_")
MsgBox, % vText

Thanks for the replies, jeewg had the solution. Putting `r and `n together did the trick.
