VBS Constants

[Guinness Mann]

I realize that this isn't a VBS newsgroup, but it's the only Microsoft
newsgroup I read regularly so I hope that you'll be gentle with me.

Where is the constant "vbCrLf" defined? My computer has been searching
its hard drive for about three hours, now, looking for a definition and
it still hasn't found anything.

The reason I'd like to find vbCrLf is because I wonder what else is in
there. Is there a vbTab? vbBackspace?

Thanks,

-- Rick

I use vbTab all the time.

Combine these two:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/script56/html/vsgrpVBSFeatures.asp

FWIW, the only VBScript feature I have never been able to find in the
scripting reference is the escape sequence for quotes: """". And combined
with the second link above, you should be able to say the same about VBA.

You can download the entire Windows Script Documentation (intrinsic objects,
VBScript, JScript, WScript) from here, in HTML Help format:

If you switch to index view, and then scroll down to vb... you'll see all
the constants listed.

Cheers
