Thanks for the reply,
Yep the line ends are the problem!
It's been working fine with fetch set in ascii mode but fetch isn't free.
And l'm after my script working on OS9 and X and l think fetch is still
running in classic which has a few bugs still. Just trying to get it working
without using any other apps really... adding the .txt works fine, or if l
replace the line returns with a ^M this will come out as line returns if l
download the file with out the .txt extension.
Just wondered if there was a flash way of doing it. ;-)
Cheers, Gary.

ASCII can be a red flag. Watch out for the line ends. You may need to make
the download after specifying ftp mode ASCII and I don't think URL Access
can do that. Or worse it may try to "help out" by looking at the file type.
See if there is any difference when you use a ftp client that can specify
ASCII mode - ftp in a command line under OS neXt or Fetch or Interarchy in
MacOS 7-9. ASCII mode will convert line ends to whatever format is in used
where the file is to be stored.
