in the good old DOS days (Clarion for DOS 2.1) I could read a text file where each line was delimited with CR/LF.... Can this be done with CW5? if so how? I do most of this kind of thing by hand so need the syntax..... thanks

processing variable length records in text file
Sure, just use the ACII driver. But there is a recent thread (past 2 weeks) on problems writing data back into the file (if, God forbid, you should need to).
