In access 2000, I am trying to create a form letter with a bullet list:
=Chr(149) & " Fact one" & Chr(10) & Chr(149) & "Fact two"

The first chr(149) produces a bullet nicely, but the Chr(10) does not do a line feed. Instead it prints a little box.

I also tried chr(13) carriage return, and chr(12), which I saw somewhere in a faq.

Am I trying to do something that Access won't do? I know I could put each fact in its own text box.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Try
=Chr(149) & " Fact one" & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & Chr(149) & "Fact two"
