I can extract these characters from the .csv file and write them into variables, but I really want to know how to define variables with  these characters manually

I have the same question (0)

    What are trying to pass it to?  Are you trying to pass characters to a scripting language, such as “/n” or are you trying to pass {Return} to a text string?

    I guess I never really understood the question.  Can you not have a text value "/n" as a variable?

    If you cannot add "/n" as a text value, then I would put in a code, and use the 'Replace Text' feature on all codes when you are done.  So, the codes would be something like NEXT_ROW, something that would never appear in regular text, then you could replace 'NEXT_ROW' with "/n".
