Memo Field - allow user to insert hard return (enter)

[SBecker]

On a memo field, is it possible to allow the user to insert a hard return, by
hitting the enter key, to leave space between paragraphs within the memo
field?

In the textbox control properties, set Enter Key Behavior to New Line in
Field.

Paul,

When I tried that, message told me that Microsoft Access can't find the
macro "New line in field".

Do I need to build it as a macro? And if so, how? Sorry for all the
questions!

Thanks
Suzanne

You can use CTRL-ENTER.

What Access version are you using? Did you select the New Line in Field
option from the dropdown for that setting? If you typed it in, try choosing
with the dropdown.
