Above when? In your first post that talks about printf, or your second
post talking about WriteFile?
I appologize, I know that I was confusing the situation. What I have
above is a small part of my actual code. I am also attempting to use
printf but it gives me the same output.
The same as what?
If I start Visual Studio 6 and create a simple "hello world"
application I want to use "\r\n" but it's translating this incorrectly
and I can get that if I use "\n" to get both characters.
I'm not sure what you mean by "incorrectly". Translating "\n" to "\r\n"
is a standard correct behavior.
I am totally lost and have no idea how to correct this.
Correct what?
Maybe you should start from the beginning and explain, slowly and
carefully, precisely what you are trying to do.
