Return Value
Type: container
The next full record from the Io object.
Remarks
The definition of the next full record is controlled by the following properties: inFieldDelimiter, inRecordDelimiter, and inRecordLength. The record is returned as a container. Each entry in the container represents one field in the record.
Each of the specialized Io classes has default settings for inFieldDelimiter, inRecordDelimiter, and inRecordLength. These settings allow for input and output of the most common formats. However, you might have to adjust these settings to support the desired format.
