Yeah, Rick, other results of the search brought me to MS Dev Network, where there was an article on problems with this format when the record was essentially empty.

I would expect any character to be allowed, too, since the help for that parameter suggests the possibility - after listing all combinations of CR and LF, it says:

end-of-line-character
    Specify the single character which indicates the end
    of a single record.

Vern,

Thanks for the tip, i'll check it out in the morning.
still, why not allow a character for a record delimiter?
sounds fishy to me.

it's probably an 'EDI Thing - I wouldn't understand' kinda thing ;)

late (really late),

Rick
