Quick question, are there any multi-line entries or can one use the new line bytes as a row delimiter?

To whom are you directing that question?

The spanner in the works is the multi row entries, big difference from handling single row entries 😉
Agreed but not much of one if each “record” has the same pattern of multi-line entries. I do use format files for such a thing if the multi-line entries are consistent.

First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a row... think, instead, of what you want to do to a column.

When you put the right degree of spin on it, the number
