I use a database to enter my research on various pathophysiology.  I enter
my data in a table with about 12 fields.  The data format of most of the
data fields is memo (longvarchar).  What I then do is this:  when I'm
working in a writer page, and I press "f4>navigate to database>select
table>select record>insert record.  The problem I have is the text in each
field may be one paragraph or two or more.  So the number of characters is
always different (which is why I use memo instead of a set text limit).

What happens is it will insert all the contents of the field including the
trailing spaces(which I don't want) at the end of the text for each field in
the record.  I want it to look like a normal document with various
paragraphs and instead I usually get the paragraph, then two blank pages of
carriage returns then the next field of the record so a document that should
be 1-2 pages in length becomes 32 most of which is carriage returns down the
page.


How do I keep the blank space at the end of the entry from being inserted
with the rest of the record?

Any help is appreciated.
