Hi All

I am currently putting together some SQL statements and am having to lay them out on a single line, e.g.

put "account_create, timestamp_create, timestamp_create_utc, account_mod, timestamp_mod, timestamp_mod_utc, _kp_uuid_username, email_user, date_of_birth, password_hint, password, username" into tFields


is there a way to allow this to be set out on separate lines (which i find easier to read), e.g.

put "
account_create,
timestamp_create,
timestamp_create_utc,
account_mod,
timestamp_mod,
timestamp_mod_utc,
kp_uuid_username,
email_user, date_of_birth,
password_hint,
password,
username"
into tFields


Many Thanks

Well, the line continuation character comes to mind. Alternately, as Devin pointed out in the bottom of that page, you can store the meat of the query in a list box or cust. property or whatever you like really, then just call it.

Hm, I'm pretty sure he means in the script editor Max.

In case you don't mean the script editor hrcap, Max's line will take and put it like this in a field
