The DB is most likely preserving your spaces, but when you display
them as HTML, the browser is not showing them. You can easily test
this by viewing source on your page. You can fix this by doing the
following:

'get your txt from DB, store it in ProblemDesc

Response.Write(Replace(Replace(ProblemDesc, " ", " "), vbcrlf,
"<br>"))

This will replace spaces w/ no-breaking spaces w/ your browser will
respect, carriage returns will be replaced by <br> tags.

Subject: preserving spaces in DB entries.


Hello All,

When adding new entries to my problem tracking system my "paste ins"
from
emails loose their spacing of characters. How do I preserve data
spaces and
format when using access and asp 3 on IIS5?

Thanks,

Paul
