hi,

i am trying to display multiple transactions lines into a text file using a container. but all the lines are being printed on the same line when i want each transaction to be printed on a new line. so i am using the following statement:

container con = conins( con, 1 , custacc + custname + "\n");

the above statement does not work. kindly help.

What do you mean by "it doesn't work"? Did you get an error?

I suspect you actually have a problem in some other code that is trying to "print" the line; unfortunately you didn't tell us anything about it.

By the way, why are you using a container in the first place?

no it is not giving any error but it isnt printing on the next line either. actually the method where i am inserting the container is called from file.writeExp(methodname()) and in this method i am inserting into the container.

i need to insert multiple fields of different types thats why im using a container.

Hello Sanaa, have you set your file.outFieldDelimiter() according to docs.microsoft.com/.../aa656034(v=ax.50)

Then I think that conins() indeed does work and we should look at your actual problem ("printing"). Please tell us more about that code and the observed behavior.
