multi lines

AusMarkB

I've noticed that if I set a column type to 'P'review then a crlf will allow for displaying of multiple lines.
However it doesn't work if a column is just a normal text field.

Is there any way to display multiple lines in a plain text column?

Mark,

By "normal" do you mean no line mark delimiters of any kind? Are you looking for word-wrapping?

by normal I meant a 'text' column as opposed to a 'preview' column.
If its just a matter of choosing the right line mark delimiters, that's easy.

It's just that I noticed crlf worked when I switched the column to a preview column. I wasn't looking for that at the time, it just happened that one of my records had a crlf in the text and two lines appeared when I made the column a preview.

Mark,

Ah..in that case, no. Only Preview mode provides this kind of display.

Ok thanks.

Now I don't need to go trying different delimiters just in case... :-)
