Hi there,

I have a multiline text field which is not accepting carriage returns. I have the lock property set to false.

When I hit the carriage return ("enter" key), it clears the text in another multiline text field I have set as locked.

Does anyone have any ideas on what I may or may not be doing?

Thanks!
 
Firemyst,

In this case you will normally have a Command Button on your form that has it's .DEFAULT property set to TRUE, you need to either turn this property off or use SHIFT+ENTER for your carriage returns.

Hope this helps.
