#16 Trailing delimiters (";") vanishing in a record with delimited fields
Have a racrord with delimited fields (no quotes) and extended basic parser is select in the record description. Some fields at the end are empty, e,g,: AA;BB;CC;;;
If I now insert one character maybe BB -> BBB save it and look in a texteditor I see: AA;BBB;CC;;
If I repeat it, the next delimiter is gone.
If I write a character in the last empy field save it, delete the character and save again, the delimiters are all back in the stored file.
This is persistent. It seems it's a problem with the buffer alocation.

Forget: I used the USB Version 0.97g and also test the newest with the same result.
The parser option might solve your problem. The basic parser will drop trailing field separators. Other parsers you could try are
X Basic - Delimiter for all fields- if there are 10 fields, will put in 9 field separatorsX Basic - Delimiter for all fields + 1- if there are 10 fields, will put in 10 field separatorsparser option:

I checked it now. With the x-basic parser it works as expected.
Thank you again.
