Hi all,

As i was doing some scripting i ran into the following problem.
When i insert text into a textframe using:
please note that myInsetrionPoint is a valid insertpoint in a valid textframe and myString contains text

myInsertionPoint.TextContents = myString


This works well when myString contains one line of text like:
"hello all, one simple line"

BUT!
When myString contains a multiline string like:
"Hello all,
second line"

InDesign inserts an extra linebreak in the textframe. So the output is like this:
"Hello all,

second line
-----------

So an extra linebreak is inserted by InDesign.
Do any of you know how this may appear? It's so stupid this! I can't figgure out what it is...

When stepping trough my code myString does contain the text like i want it to be placed. I Don't see any extra linebreaks or something like that..
Who has any clue?

Thanx very much!
