How to remove carriage return symbol before importing into excel
 
I have a VB 2005 application that imports title into excel; how do I
get it to not include the carriage return symbol's
this is the code:
I this code is in a function and gets called for every line that needs
to be included in the title heading.

mSubTitle += strFilter & ": " & strSubTitle & vbCrLf

I also tried this:
mSubTitle += strFilter & ": " & strSubTitle + Chr(13) + Chr(10)

When excel opens I get the title and at the end of every line is a
small square.
How do I make this work?

Try removing the "Chr(13)". Also, you need to set the cell format to wrap.
mSubTitle = strFilter & ": " & strSubTitle & Chr(10)

The purpose of Chr(13) and Chr(10) is usually to include a line feed or hard
return. If you don't need that, then remove them both...or just get rid of
the Chr(13) or replace it with Chr(10) and format the cell to wrap as
mentioned before.

Thanks, Paul I removed Chr(13) and used wraptext = true
