Line Feeds In Text Box - How to Enable?

43
I have regularly defined tables with either Text or Memo type fields. (Using Access 2003 or Access 97) I have noticed that if I enter data through a datasheet directly into the table that when I hit the "Enter" key it goes to the next field in the table. However when I have set up a form, it allows me to hit Enter within the field and create a blank line separating paragraphs.

I have set up a parent form with two subforms and now when I create a text boxes and try to enter data, it does not let me hit "Enter" and create paragraphs within a textbox anywhere either on the two subforms nor in the main form.

Is there a setting somewhere I can configure to allow it?

Thanks!

Thanks! I thought it had to be fairly simple :)
