Andrus,
Try TextMerge() instead:

MyVar = TEXTMERGE("<<1+;
                     2+;
                     3+;
                     4>>")

>>>I use VFP 7 TEXT TO myvar TEXTMERGE command.
>>>
>>>I need to split a long expression between << >> into multiple lines for
>>>readability.
>>>
>>>However, the following program produces syntax error.
>>>How to split expression into multiple lines ?
>>>
>>>

>>>TEXT TO myvar TEXTMERGE
>>><< 1+ ;
>>>2>>
>>>ENDTEXT
>>>

>>
