Carriage return with MYSQL

I want to insert a carriage return into a text field. I am using insert into
and \n for newline. The MYSQL database is accessed by a MS Access front end
and the text field appears with a small square where the new line should be.
It appears that the \n is interpreted in Access differently.
Is there a way of putting a carriage return into the field so that it is
seen as such by Accesss?

Try \r\n. Windows likes to see a carriage return\linefeed combination.
