OK. I have resolved this problem by replacing NewLine with <br/> elements before updating the Note field. I have also had to reverse this when retrieving the Note field's contents and rendering them in the TextBox because the <br/>s are being literally returned. So much for Plain Text. :) Could I avoid all this by using a SharePoint NoteField in my custom control instead of a standard asp textbox?

Hi all, I'm trying to update a multiline (plain) text field from a custom control that uses an ASP TextBox. Everything works fin until the user includes a carriage return in the entry. >From experience, SQL usually handles this automatically but it seems >SharePoint wants to convert these special characters first. Is this expected behaviour, or does anyone know a standard method to cleanse the text first? e.g. Replace(MyColumn,char(13),'\r\n') Kind regards, Paul Noone --------------------------------------------------- Online Developer/SharePoint Administrator Infrastructure Team, ICT Catholic Education Office, Sydney p: (02) 9568 8461 f: (02) 9568 8483 e: paul.no...@ceosyd.catholic.edu.au<mailto:paul.no...@ceosyd.catholic.edu.au> w: http://www.ceosyd.catholic.edu.au/
