>chrtran(myMemo, chr(13) +chr(10), '<br/>')thanks for coming back, I've tried variats of this code below but the result that I put back onto the screen never shows the br code as being added to the text
mbody = thisform.edtbody.Value * this always returns a yes, have to to make sure it can see the chr(13) IF CHR(13) $ UPPER(mbody) WAIT WINDOW "yes" TIMEOUT 1 ELSE WAIT WINDOW "no" TIMEOUT 1 ENDIF chrtran(mbody, chr(10), '<br/>') *chrtran(mbody, chr(13), '<br/>') *chrtran(mbody, chr(13) + chr(10), '<br/>') *chrtran(mbody, chr(10) + chr(13), '<br/>') * so I can see the result thisform.edtbody2.Value = mbody
