Marc,
VARCHAR will still work with DBMEMO fields. You don't need the Rich Text. Emmitt Dove Manager, DairyPak Business Systems Evergreen Packaging, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] (203) 643-8022 From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Marc Sent: Thursday, July 24, 2008 9:41 AM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Note vs Varchar Db Memo vs DB Rich Edit Hi I have a note field for storing text and I use DB Memo's on my forms. This works great the ^ Lineend gets expanded to blank lines when you are in the forms as expected. Now, I need more room so I change the field from Note to Varchar then changed the form to use DB Rich edit. Now it seems that the ^ show up instead of blank lines when in the forms. Am I missing something or am I mixing up the data type and Rich Edit? Even if I use a DB Memo in the form to edit the Varchar text I still see ^^ instead of blank lines. I have Allow Returns checked. If I an in the Rich Edit and press Enter it puts in blank likes as I want, Those seem to stick but the old ^ Lineends are not converted or expanded to blank lines so to speak. Thanks Marc
