Importing Large Text Fields

[djhopalong]

Hi all,

I've developed an online form where a user submits an application. There are a few fields that need to have text answers entered such as a field that has a user describes his/her history. Right now I have filemaker set up to import all the fields as a tab delineated file and it works fine unless the user enters a return in any of the longer text answer fields.

How can I get the field values imported if they contain returns or tabs entered by the user?

I think I figured it out. This question might be too basic for this forum. In any event, anyone reading this that might have a similar problem should check out the following link:

The MSDSO_element import example is what helped me.
