Arguments

<cEol>

A character string holding the end-of-line character(s) for ASCII text files. The default is Chr(13)+Chr(10).

Description

SET EOL is an environment command defining the new-line delimiter(s) for files in ASCII format. This applies to regular text files as well as files in DELIMITED or SDF format. The end-of-line character is operating system dependent. Windows uses Chr(13)+Chr(10) as end-of-line characters.
