    <p>I am creating a long string in my c# application. I want it to stay on one line as these are the headers for fields the user has selected to update in the database. The string will be used in a log file.</p> <p>When I select all the fields to be updated it seems that the string is to long to be displayed in a single line and is automatically wrapped.</p> <p>I am confused as textfile should be able to handle a string of any length (Memory permitting) without wrapping.</p> <p>It seems that once the string gets longer than about 1050 characters it does an Automatic wrap.</p> <p>My code is below:</p> <pre><code>private void UpdateCustomer(string pCurrentFileName, ref StringBuilder log, string date, ref string directoryPath, ref string logFilePath) { // set the logfile paths for customer update directoryPath = Path.Combine(pLogFilePath, "CustomerUpdate_Log_" + date.Replace("/", "").Replace(" ", "").Replace(":", "")); logFilePath = Path.Combine(directoryPath, "CustomerUpdate.log"); DataSet customerUpdateDataSet = new CustomerUpdateValidator().ImportCustomersForUpdateFromExcelFileToDataSet(pCurrentFileName); log.Append("-------------------------------------------------------------------------" + "\r\n"); log.Append("Bulk Maintenance Log: Customer Updatess" + "\r\n"); log.Append("-------------------------------------------------------------------------" + "\r\n"); log.Append(date + "\r\n\r\n"); log.Append("Total number of Customer to be updated: " + (customerUpdateDataSet.Tables["CustomerData"].Rows.Count - 2).ToString() + "\r\n\r\n"); log.Append("Data to be Inserted" + "\r\n"); log.Append("-".PadRight(300, '-') + "\r\n\r\n\r\n"); StringBuilder header = new StringBuilder("Row".PadRight(10, ' ') + "\t"); header.Append("URN".PadRight(40, ' ') + "\t"); int count = 0; // for each row in the grid view for (int i = 0; i &lt; this.gridView1.DataRowCount; i++) { // if the value is checked if (Convert.ToBoolean(this.gridView1.GetRowCellValue(i, "CheckMarkSelection"))) { // get the fields from the checked column string baxiDescription = this.gridView1.GetRowCellValue(i, "SimpleName").ToString(); int size = getSizeFromType(this.gridView1.GetRowCellValue(i, "Type").ToString()); header.Append(baxiDescription.PadRight(size, ' ') + "\t"); count = i; } } header.Append("Result".PadRight(10, ' ') + "\t"); header.Append("Reason".PadRight(30, ' ') + "\t"); log.Append(header.ToString() + "\r\n"); log.Append(new StringBuilder("-".PadRight(header.Length + 60, '-') + "\r\n")); } </code></pre> <p>Any ideas why this is happening?</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Bw4a5.jpg" alt="My DataSet"> <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/N7Qd5.jpg" alt="Wrapped LogFile"></p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Iain</p>

    1. COSounds like it's probably a client issue rather than being part of the data. What are you displaying this in?

    2. COAgree with Jon, look in a hex viewer or something that show CR-LFs so you see if there really is a line break there.

    3. CO@Jon Skeet Im displaying it in a memoedit devexpress control. It is also saved as a text file which wraps at exactly the same point in the string as the memo edit. I noticed that during debugging it also does the same thing in the watch window

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
