Jacques,
The code for a paragraph I think is two line feed/carriage returns.
What is the control code you are using for the page break?Is it a control "l"?
Back when I was using the Millennium 40 to do the search and replace
work on the .txt files, it was much easier to insert control codes.
Badck then I used control "m"/control "j" twice, for the paragraph
mark, and control "l" for the page break.
Now I am using MS Word to edit the files. It is less clear to me what
codes are being inserted. It seems that a caret-p is used for
paragraph, and then I am confused about what control codes are
actually being inserted when I select "line feed" or "page break"
from the dialog box. Can you enlighten me on this? Maybe this is my
whole problem.
Thanks so much for your help.

Subject: [ibx] [bookport] Navigation in .txt files...
Prior to the firmware update last March, I seemed to have no
problem inserting codes into text files, which would then allow
efficient navigation of the file in the bookport. After that
firmware update, I have had great frustration and have not been
successful at inserting paragraph codes in order to navigate with
the 4 and 6 keys. Sometimes I also have problems inserting page
break codes in order to navigate with the 7 and 9 keys. The only
navigation code that now seems dependable is the section marker
";;;" which uses the A/D and C/F keys.
Has anyone else had this problem?
In the rush to comply with DAISY, I hope we don't abandon the plain
.txt files!
