Locate form feeds (\f) in text

Featured Replies

  • Newbies

I process text imported from other sources. One file I use has imbedded Form Feed characters (f). Is there a way to locate this character in FMP 9?

The file I am importing an parsing has about 3000 fixed length records, about 70 of these records will have the Form Feed character. Presently I open the raw text file with BBedit, remove the /f characters then import and process the file in FileMaker.

I would like to eliminate the BBedit step.

Regards,

Dennis

Can't you use the Substitute Function on it, or Replace?
