problem with line spacing and carriage returns

I posted a previous question on the actionscript forum and got some assistance; however the solution isn't working for me and I think its due to the Koolmoves software I'm using. The post is here:

I wanted to know how to get my dynamic text box to display with single line breaks instead of double. My text file (mFile) reads this way:

2nd Saturday at Twelve Lounge
1123 H Street/ NE Washington DC 20003
Battle of the hottest djays

But when displayed in my movie it reads this way:

2nd Saturday at Twelve Lounge

1123 H Street/ NE Washington DC 20003

Battle of the hottest djays

This is the code I currently have that results to the above:

var R;
  //
  res=new LoadVars();
  res.load("mfile.txt");

  res.onData=function(info){
    if (info==undefined){
      R="Loading failed";
    }else{
       R=info;    }
    txt1.text=R;
  }

I was advised to change "R=info;" to :

R=info.split("\r\n").join("\n");

When trying to use that syntax it produced the following error:

"expecting a variable for the property target"

Does anyone know the proper syntax for this expression? Or why I am getting this error?

R=info.split("\r\n").join("\n");

try:

R=info.split("\r\n");
R=R.join("\n");
