Text Area Box

[terry]

I have set a text area box to let user input their comment
and store the result to the access database, but why the
system can only update the first line up to the first
carriage return?

A regular txt box can only hold up to like 50 charactures. Try using a txt
area(the one with the scroller on the right). That sets as memo in the DB,
and can put mucho stuff there

What makes you think the second and all subsequent lines
are missing?

If you looked in Access datasheet view, that view displays
data up to the first line ending, even if additional data
is present in the database.

If you query the data by using the Database Results
Wizard, you should get all the characters that were
entered.
