Description

The MEMOTRAN() function translates all hard carriage returns (ASCII 13), within the <memofield> or <expC1>, into the character defined by <expC2>. If <expC2> is not specified, then it defaults to a semicolon. MEMOTRAN() also translates all line feed/soft carriage returns (ASCII 10), within the <memofield> or <expC1>, into the character defined by <expC3>. If <expC3> is not specified, then it defaults to a space.
