Re: cr after every 6th line

Hi Craig, So I have to admit, I had to look up "Mod" in the dictionary to understand what you were getting at. If I understand it correctly and how you used it, its simply limiting the number of lines to be evaluated? I am still a little confused on "mod 6=0" though...obviously 6 is the ceiling but ...

So simply, I have a ton of lines in a text field and need to separate the data with a cr after every six lines. Thanks for help! Ken...

Re: access safari browser settings

let me be clear here....by no way am I trying to "delete" any settings....just files in the appropriate folders....after writing my second post, it became clear that accessing the "browser" is nonsense. I just simply need to access the folders on the hard drive that contain the files I am after. Bei...

access safari browser settings

Just was wanting to see if anyone could point me in the right direction when it comes to creating a standalone that accesses the general browser settings in safari and Win IE. Really what I need access to is the history and cookies so that I can delete them in the app. Thanks for help in advance.......

After a few long moonlight walks, a little crying and yelling at the dog, I realized I just needed to dig into the material and figure this out. Ultimately , the trick here is to retrie...

Re: SQL and Blob question

I don't mean to keep bumping this thread, but I want to make myself clear....What would be the preferred way in storing a .PDF on a SQL server table so that it can be retrieved and displayed in stack? When I store it as a BLOB on the server, the item is encoded, and when retrieved, it is encoded and...

Re: SQL and Blob question

so I am curious about viewing .PDF attachments in a standalone....From what I can tell by reading, the preferred method would be to use a revBrowserOpen command to view the binary data in a browser window. But what if I wanted to save the binary data to lets say the "Documents" folder as a .PDF then...
