Textarea fields are plain text, which means that they would automatically
lose any formatting.
If you want it to handle the bullets, indents etc. properly, then you need
to buy an editor like ActiveEdit or eWebEditPro.
If you just want to handle the carriage returns, then output
Replace(myString,chr(13)&Chr(10),"<br>","All")
which will change all hard returns into <br>s
