Ok.. I narrowed it down. The extra data is coming from the edit box. Not from the GuiControlGet or even the loop, parse. Even when I do a ControlSetText to set the edit box to blank it still retains s ...

That was a good idea. That is what I was doing with the server=. Unfortunately the ControlSetText didn't work either. I did a msgbox after the command and it shows that the command is blanking the dat ...

I tried a Gui, Submit. I still get the same result. This tells me that there is nothing wrong with the way I am retrieving the data from the edit box, but something wrong with the gui, edit box.

You won't be able to test the code unless you have a Windows CE device. The code works fine in Windows XP, but populates the extra data in Windows CE. I can try a Gui, Submit. I'm not sure it will hel ...

I am not using a server.txt file. I am entering the data with a bar code scanner. It gets populated in a Gui Edit Box. Then I retrieve it from there with GuiControlGet and parse the data to eliminate ...

A text file would look just like the list. When I do a guicontrolget it looks like.

Server1
Server2
Server3
Server4

Then I do a loop parse and I get.

Server1,Grid1,

I can have it create a server.txt file when the initial data is collected. But I will still need to eliminate blank lines and organize the text to have the grid location. Man that gets messy too. I wi ...

I am trying to make a little inventory program for a hand held scanner in order to track servers in my data center. The program works fine in Windows XP, but I get some strange results in CE.

Got it thanks to member SKAN.

That's it.. Thanks so much.

Any help?

At this point I would settle for editing the string. I thought I could do it with StringReplace, but I can't figure it out.

I am trying to get data from a gui edit box then input a common value at the beginning of every line. The problem I have is that each entry ends with a carriage return, so I end up with a blank line a ...

That didn't work. It isn't omitting the blank line at the end of the list. I have to leave a carriage return after every entry. That is how the scanner that I am using works.

My list looks like thi ...
