how to load TAB files on opennetcf?

[vaj]

Hi,
Does anyone know how to load a *.Tab file on to a dataset using
opennetcf?
I tried doing it but it doesnt seem to work.

Private da As OpenNETCF.Data.text.TextDataAdapter:
....
....
da.delimitingcharacter = " "
...
could anyone tell me how to do this.
Would be much appreciated!

Hi,

This looks like VB.NET code. I don't know if the following works in VB.NET.
But, try this:

da.delimitingcharacter = "\t";

Your editor has quite possibly changed the tabs to spaces, in your string
literal. '\t' is the escape code for a tab character.

Hi,

If you have such an especific question about a framework post it in the
framework's support forum.

Extra hint, the developers of it usually post in the compactframework NG,
you better post it there.

Finally you are setting the incorrect char, it should be
da.delimitingcharacter = '\t';

note that I did not check the docs of opennetcf so no idea what is expected
in delimitingcharacter property.
