Hi Veer

Try also with SrLine(str string, int count)

Retrieves a single line from a string that spans multiple lines

So you have a string field and you want to get a substring from the beginning the first line break. Correct? It should be now relatively clear how to implement it:

#File int pos = strFind(value, #DelimiterCRLF, 1, strLen(value)); value = subStr(value, 1, pos - 1);
