rowDelimiter

Type​

property

Summary​

Specifies the character(s) used to separate rows in a string.

Syntax​

set the rowDelimiter to <character(s)>
get the rowDelimiter

Description​

Use the rowDelimiter property in conjunction with the split command to divide text into an array of rows or with the combine command to combine an array of rows into a string.

From LiveCode 7.0, rowDelimiter can be a string of one or several characters.

Since the rowDelimiter is a local property, its value is reset to return when the current handler finishes executing. It retains its value only for the current handler and setting it in one handler does not affect its value in other handlers called.

Examples​

set the rowDelimiter to comma
put the rowDelimiter into tRowDelimiter
set the rowDelimiter to ";;"

Value​
