Return in a Text box

[Xaos]

Very simple question....

I created a field that is a text box. In the form, I made the box big,
so that I could put a 3 line address in the box. The problem is when I
hit return, it goes to the next field. Is there a way to get multiple
lines in a text box?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Use Control + Return or Shift + Return to get each additional line. BTW, a
text box is not a field. It is a control used to display a field from a
table or query.

Use Ctrl+Return to do it.

On the General Tab of the textbox properties there is a setting called
EnterKeyBehavior. You can set it to New Line in field. That way you don't
have to use extra keys.
