Adding a newline character in concat method

[stan_rsm]

I am trying to create a txt file in UNIX environment and building a string using concat method.  The requirement is to insert a new line between the string value.  I tried the following but nothing seems to work.

1. concat("FirstLine","\n","SecondLine);
2. concat("FirstLine","\\n","SecondLine);
3. concat("FirstLine","/\n","SecondLine);
4. concat("FirstLine","&#xA","SecondLine);
5. concat("FirstLine","&#x0A","SecondLine);
6. concat("FirstLine","&#xD","SecondLine);
7. concat("FirstLine","&#x0D","SecondLine);
8. concat("FirstLine",CHAR(10),"SecondLine);
9. concat("FirstLine",Char(10),"SecondLine);

attempts 1-7 concatenated the string into only one line.  Attempts 8,9 threw an error saying "CHAR" or "Char" is not a valid method.  Can anyone help me out with this?

Thanks a lot

Is it possible where you are passing this value, you could pick template as the type of input and put your new lines in there?

One solution would be to use a script step.

Hi Steven,

regarding the "add new line!" see forum:

I tried many different options, and the most consistent was to go the executeScript way.

Make a resuable component or something like that.

hope it helps...
