Conversion of source file character tags

To comply with the only one text line for every record in the data text file format some characters in the import source file may have been converted to tagged character conversions.
Also, text from HTML sources typically will contain conversions of characters of special coding significance into tagged substitutes: <, > and &.

When importing, PdxEditor automatically converts the following tagged characters irrespective of upper/lower case:

<br> to line break (#13#10) - only for Memo and FmtMemo fields

<br/> to line break (#13#10) - only for Memo and FmtMemo fields

<br /> to line break (#13#10) - only for Memo and FmtMemo fields

<tab> to tab character (#9) - only for Memo and FmtMemo fields

" to " (#34 double quote character)

"" to " (#34 double quote charater)

' to ' (#39 apostrophe)

< to < (lesser than)

> to > (greater than)

& to & (ampersand)
