1. If the data begins on the line following a marker, 
be sure to specify a new-line character ("\n") as part of 
the string. Note also that the spacing between the marker and 
the new-line character must be the same as that in the 
actual file. This spacing is easily determined in the Data Browser 
by placing the cursor at the end of the marker and 
then at the end of the line and reading the corresponding 
offset values (see  #!Ldp618,dxall170 f Figure 18  #!EL  ). #!N #!I30 #!N 2. If the 
marker itself contains quotation marks or special characters, use the escape 
character ("\") to indicate them, as shown in the following table.
