Merge Adjacent Delimiters

When the Merge Adjacent Delimiters control is selected, the Organise Fields tool merges adjacent delimiters in lines of the input file before displaying the input file's fields.

The merging of adjacent delimiters is performed internally by the Organise Fields tool and the contents of the input file are not altered.

Example

If an input file contains the following lines:

xxx (1, "abc", ,,, 101, rst);
xxx (2, "def", ,, 202, uvw);
xxx (3, "ghi", , 303, xyz);

the Organise Fields tool effectively treats the input lines as:

xxx (1, "abc", , 101, rst);
xxx (2, "def", , 202, uvw);
xxx (3, "ghi", , 303, xyz);

when the Merge Adjacent Delimiters control is selected.
