Dear Newsgroup:

I am attempting to paste ascii characters from an editbox in one program i
wrote to a .cpp file i am writing...the problem is, when i do so, the ide
translate the tab and new line characters as formatting directives rather
than ascii characters...please advise how to get the ascii symbols instead
of the actual formatting commands, as i need them directly.

Sincerely,

Jonathan M. Freedman

How to want to see them displayed? What is the visual representation of
the Tab character for instance? Do you want them as hex characters? Just
a blank space? When I try pasting the Tab, I see a vertical line and it
seems to ignore the carriage return - new line combination.

By the way, you may get more response to this in the
borland.public.cppbuilder.vcl.components.using newsgroup. This newsgroup
is for IDE questions.

I'll be glad to try to help if you say what you'd like the formating (or
control) characters to look like.

i've switched the program over to dealing with the ascii values...however,
the issue is a cut and past one thru the ide...i can't paste a tab stop or
carriage return character into code i am writing in the ide...i think the
ide text processor won't allow it...or at least i don't know how to set up
the editor interface not to interpret pastes from clipboard of tabstop and
crlf characters as commands instead of characters
