Rich Text, Sharepoint and InfoPath

I have seen a few posts about submitting an InfoPath form to SharePoint and
the paragraph breaks that were in InfoPath not being propagated to the
RichText field in SharePoint. I have not however seen a solution to this
problem.

In trying to solve the problem I was wondering if there was an escape
character that I could append to the end of my lines that SharePoint might
recognize? I have tried and
as well as /n but none seem to make a difference.

Specifically I am trying to create a comments field in InfoPath where each
comment is timestamped, then when sent to the Sharepoint list it would read
like this:

7/25/2005 11:02 AM---user1---Comment1
7/25/2005 11:02 AM---user2---Comment2
7/25/2005 11:02 AM---user1---Comment3

in all ends up running together on one line:
7/25/2005 11:02 AM---user1---Comment1 7/25/2005 11:02 AM---user2---Comment2
7/25/2005 11:02 AM---user1---Comment3

My idea is that Icould append an escape character that SharePoint would
recognize:

7/25/2005 11:02 AM---user1---Comment1?

for example.

Anyone have an opinion? Is this a question for the SharePoint group?

Uh oh yeah, my escape characters have "Escaped", heh he.

I have tried these escape characters with "&" on the front of them:
#xD;
#xA;

as well as @newLine.

Question was easier than I thought. It was looking for a <BR>, which totally
makes sense, I should have thought of it first.
