>>I have a programmer here who has a field defined as Char 155, not a memo field but a character field. Her users wish to enter data into the text box, but they wish to enter a carriage return when the need to separate specific data. This is so that when the field is printed the data is separated in a logical manner. I have tried to get them to use a memo field, but they users (who pay the bill) do not wish to do that. So what I need is does someone know of a way that a person can enter data into a text box and enter a carriage return followed by more data. Without the carriage return being interpreted as 'data entered and move the cursor to the next field'

Thanks Ed I passed your response on to my fellow programmer.
