how can i automate the importation of small text files in Ninox ?

i have plenty of text files and i want to import them in ninox

i tried to put up a csv file of them but looks like ninox doesn't recognise the CR

for example, a text file like this :

ligne 1

ligne 2

ligne 3

is imported like that :

ligne 1ligne 2ligne 3

and i really don't understand why except if there is a problem with carriage return codification ???

in the other way, if i export the text file back from ninox to a csv, the CR is ok !!!!

might be a bug there : in the way ninox shows text file of a certain type ??

else

is there is a ninox tool that could do the job for me ? i'm not aware of it, but it could exist ? please let me know…

thanks again

    If you import into a "Text" field there are no line breaks. Id you import into the field type "Text (multiline)" linebreaks should be preserved.

    Problem was solved. There were actually not line feed but "vertical tabs" witch are not supported.
