Delete blank line of text

Dman · Mar 3, 2013

I have an edittext that contains lines like this when retrieved from a db field:

Line1

Line2

Line3

I need to get rid of the blank lines and have it look like this

Line1
Line2
Line3

I am obviously having a major brain fart and can't for the life of me figure out how to do it. I must be tired....

Dman .. This is 1 multiline edittext box you are referring to ?

There is no linefeed in the db Data ?
Maybe post some code .. that might help

Try:

B4X:

EditText1.Text = EditText1.Text.Replace(CRLF & CRLF, CRLF) 'assuming that the end of line character is chr(10)

Replace the CRLFs!

You could remove the empty lines with code like this:

B4X:

txt.Text = txt.Text.Replace(CRLF & CRLF, CRLF)

Where txt is your EditText box.
