Multi-line Address

[cuig]

I have a HomeAddress field in a form linked to Members Table.

How can I make this a multi-line Field? I think if I use Memo, the Field
won't appear on other forms, such as Label Wizard.

The reason is that several addresess have house names and not numbers.

I want to be able to have a Name field, then an Address field:

John User (Name Field)

The Old Barn
Caxley (both lines as Address Field)

Thanks.

You can use Ctrl+Enter to type a line break into a text box.

Alternatively, set the text box's Enter Key Behavior property to:
New Line in Field.

Another option is to use 2 fields, e.g. AddressLine1 and AddressLine2. This
may be better if you ever need to export the addresses to a text file, as
the embedded line breaks can mess up export/import operations.

Thanks, Allen.

Ctrl+Enter works perfectly.

I had been trying Shift+Enter, used in other Microsoft programs to do the
same thing.
