Title: Message
From the text:
 
The Chr$( ) function returns a string, one character long, based on the character code specified in the num_expr parameter. On most systems, num_expr should be a positive Integer value between 0 and 255.
 
The values returned by the Chr$( ) function depend partly on the operating environment that is in use at run-time. However, all MapInfo environments have common character codes within the range of 32 (space) to 126 (tilde).
 
Character 12 is the form-feed character. Thus, you can use the statement Print Chr$(12) to clear the Message window.
 
Character 10 is the line-feed character; see example below.

Character 34 is the double-quotation mark ("). If a string _expression_ includes the function call Chr$(34), MapBasic embeds a double-quote character in the string.

I've always been curious: is the number in the parenthesis the size of the carriage return, or something else?  For instance, I have always used Chr$(13), and have never experimented in changing the number.

Hi Ken,
 
In your label options in the drop down box there is an _expression_...option.
 
A line return is represented by Chr$(10).
 
Enter label _expression_ like this     field1 + Chr$(10) + field2 + Chr$(10) + field3
 
 
which would result as
 
 
field1
field2
field3
 
Cheers
 
Paul

Hey
 
Can anyone tell me how to make labels with multiple lines each with data from different fields?
 
Thanks
Ken
