Break down a record

[Dani R]

I have a record that has 5 lines in it . example "line 1

line 2

line 3

line 4

line 5"

Is there away that i can break it down in to five records. (the problem is the i get the above record from a external source and i have to break it down)

thanks Dani

If you have consistency, you can parse. Use GetValue ( field, n)

I am sorry I don't understand

First of all, a record cannot have five lines in it, but a FIELD can. That is what I thought you were talking about. You import this record to a temporary table which has a text field of 5 lines. Then using a script, you parse the field by using Set Field (field1); GetValue(multilinefield, 1).

Not enough information. What is the natureof the record and those lines? Order and details?
