I'm trying to create a formula that returns a string which contains a return character. I can't seem to figure out how to do this. I'm C/C++ programmer so I'm used to the '\n' character as a newline or carriage return character.

Is there something in Crystal that will do what I want?

I don't think a formula can result in a carriage return character, becuase the text of a formula is not evaluated by the page layout functions.

You could put 2 forumulas in a text object and put a cariage return between them. [sig]<p>Ken Hamady- href= Reports Training by Ken Hamady</a><br>[/sig]
