AsciiLoad function corrupts DataSetComment variables

Hi,

if you import an Ascii file with the AsciiLoad function, all DataSetComment variables are cut to 73 characters and concat in a weird way.

Can someone please verify this? I'm really clueless.

Please just try this code:

Call ScriptCmdReset() 
Call UserVarFreeAll() 
Call DataDelAll(1) 

DATASETCOMMENT(52) = "2222222222222 - abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-aabbccddeeffgghhiijjkkllmmnnooppqqrrssttuuvvwwxxyyzz"
DATASETCOMMENT(53) = "111111111111111 - abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-aabbccddeeffgghhiijjkkllmmnnooppqqrrssttuuvvwwxxyyzz"
DATASETCOMMENT(54) = "1818181818181818 - abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-aabbccddeeffgghhiijjkkllmmnnooppqqrrssttuuvvwwxxyyzz"
' DATASETCOMMENT(5) = "262626262626262626 - abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-aabbccddeeffgghhiijjkkllmmnnooppqqrrssttuuvvwwxxyyzz"
' DATASETCOMMENT(6) = "30303030303030303030 - abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-aabbccddeeffgghhiijjkkllmmnnooppqqrrssttuuvvwwxxyyzz"

msgbox Len(DATASETCOMMENT(52)) & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & DATASETCOMMENT(52)
msgbox Len(DATASETCOMMENT(53)) & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & DATASETCOMMENT(53)
msgbox Len(DATASETCOMMENT(54)) & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & DATASETCOMMENT(54)
msgbox Len(DATASETCOMMENT(5)) & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & DATASETCOMMENT(5)
msgbox Len(DATASETCOMMENT(6)) & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & DATASETCOMMENT(6)



Call AsciiLoad("C:\tmp\test.txt", 0)


msgbox Len(DATASETCOMMENT(52)) & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & DATASETCOMMENT(52)
msgbox Len(DATASETCOMMENT(53)) & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & DATASETCOMMENT(53)
msgbox Len(DATASETCOMMENT(54)) & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & DATASETCOMMENT(54)
msgbox Len(DATASETCOMMENT(5)) & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & DATASETCOMMENT(5)
msgbox Len(DATASETCOMMENT(6)) & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & DATASETCOMMENT(6)

My test.txt just contains the following:

fafasdf;adfasdf;adfadsf
341234;12341234;12341234

It is imported correctly into 3 channels with 2 entries each.

Just my DataSetComments, which I want to export to Excel later, are corrupted.

I don't want to use DataPlugins, because I work on many different txt files with completly different content. That's why I want to keep using stp files.

Anyone any idea what is happening here and how to work arrounf this?

Thanks a million in advance!
