SYMPTOMS

If you run an application that reads in text files and depends on carriage return Hex 0D or CHR$(13) at the end of each line of text, the application may fail when it reads text files created from NET commands.

CAUSE

Windows NT 3.5 places only a linefeed Hex 0A, or CHR$(10), at the end of each line of text generated from the NET commands.

WORKAROUND

If possible, modify the application you are using to look for Hex 0A or CHR$(10) at the end of each line (instead of the Hex 0D or CHR$(13)).

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5. This problem was corrected in Windows NT version 3.51.
