I don't speak the ASP, but maybe....

strXls = strXls & replace(fld.value,vbCr,vblf)

or

strXls = strXls & replace(fld.value,char(13),Chr(10))

Without knowing what strXLS or fld.value is, either.

Thank You!
Unfortunately in the same case excel break text cel in a new row.

Without knowing what strXLS or fld.value is, either.


strXls, is a variable that contain the output in excel
fld.value, is the value of a field of db that can contain some break line
and i must send it in a unique cel

sorry again for my english

How are you sending that value to excel?

If you're just plopping that value into the cell, I would think it would work
ok:

xlApp.workbooks("someworkbook").worksheets("somewo rksheet").range("a1").value _
= strXls

If you're relying on windows pasting the value, then maybe you could substitute
a different (unique) string (|) and then change that to alt-enter (char(10)).

If you're building a tab delimited file, then I think you're going to have to
find a different way.

Excel will see those alt-enters as new lines and import that data into a new
row.
