Carriage return in memo fields and queries

I'm making a report that uses a query as its source. The query references a
memo field that typically has carriage returns in it. When I go to run the
report, it seems to have truncated the fields at the carriage return.

Are there any particular problems using such fields coming through a query
in a report? The query really seemed to hack it up.

Experiment with CR LF pairs. That may work better.

Well, CR=Chr$(13), and LF=Chr$(10).
Perhaps you could write some code that replaces single CR characters
by a CRLF pair.
