I have a data field that can have multiple lines of data. I set cangrow to TRUE and multiline is 3. How do I get the field to push any information below down? When it populates, it mixes the text with the other data.

Field1: Multiline/Cangrow field
Field2: Other data

Results

Field1: This is a test of the emergency broadcast system,
Field2: this is only a test.

I dont want this info going into Field2: I want like below:

Field1: This is a test of the emergency broadcast system,
this is only a test.
Field2: Data

Any thoughts?

Insert another section below the section containing field1 and move field2 into it. For example

Detail Section
Field1: This is a test of the emergency broadcast system,
Field2: this is only a test.

Detail Section A
Field1: This is a test of the emergency broadcast system,

Detail Section B
Field2: this is only a test.

Of course, you may run into other problems depending where the other fields are located on the report.

Cheers,

Thanks wichitakid, works great. It is funny how we forget simple things, when a tool is not used for a while.
