Is it possible to have a character either octal or hex placed in a memo field
and displayed on a report in a text box? It actually wouldn't be displayed
as a line feed or carriage return is not displayable at least to my
knowledge. But it would cause a line feed/carriage return to allow formating
of the text from the memo field in the textbox of the report. If not is
there another way to cause a new line in the textbox?

When entering stuff in a text box, you can use Ctrl+Enter to
get a new line.

Either type Ctrl-Enter to insert a CR-LF pair, or change the textbox's Enter
Key Behavior property to "New line in field".
