Hi!

Thanks for reading my message.
I have a small question:
"How do I get a single line out of a variant in VB 5.0?)

For Example:
Br = Chr(13) + Chr(10)
test= "Hello" & Br & "How are you today?" & br & "Fine, Thank you"

How do I get the second, third or first line out of 'test' ?

I'm just a newbie so my example will be very low-programmed, but hey I
had to think of some example.

Thanks,

Use the Instr function to find Br

dim p as integer
p = instr(test, chr$(13))

p will equal 6 in your case.

You can then use the Left$ and/or Mid$ functions
to take apart the string

Note:  If you're looking for the second string, you have
to also find the second occurrence of chr$(13) using another Instr

Look under help at the INSTR and MID functions. Then, parse using INSTR as
start and end points.
