tsystems Posted November 15, 2013 Author Share Posted November 15, 2013 This is MS Outlook but my question applies to any text with whitespace above and below on the clipboard. I've worked around the issue but I'd still like to know why I fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators JLogan3o13 Posted November 15, 2013 Moderators Share Posted November 15, 2013 Without seeing everything you're doing it is hard to say, try this with a blank Notepad document and see what your result is: WinActivate("[CLASS:Notepad]", "") Send("this is a test") Sleep(100) Send("^a^c") $crap = ClipGet() $clean = StringStripWS($crap, 8) ClipPut($clean) I get thisisatest as a result "Profanity is the last vestige of the feeble mind.

jchd Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Where are you copying the result to and how did you deduce you still have line <br>eaks left? There is a blind guess as hint above.

NewPlaza Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) I have had issues in the past where @LF, @CR, and/or @CRLF were being confuesd (by me) as white spaces. Try this... It may help. $var = StringReplace($var, @CR, "") $var = StringReplace($var, @LF, "") $var = StringReplace($var, @CRLF, "") Edited November 15, 2013 by NewPlaza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
