@CR vs @LF()

What is the difference between @CR() and @LF()
Are there any situations in which latter is helpful.
Help file doesn't speak anyhting.

If you look at the ASCII values of each, you'll see that they're different
characters:

THe @lf() function is basicly the same as @chr(13)@chr(10) / @cr()@chr(10). The "lf" stands for Line Feed, which is the character @chr(10). Smile

I knew LF stands for line feed but was wondering how it can be used in VDS.
Thanks for the Info Smile

It's really for creating files. When formatting text to display in a message box, @cr() is usually enough, but if you are creatibg a text file using some method other than a string list then each line has to be terminated by @cr()@lf().
