Hi ... My application saves variable length user-generated messages in an
ACCESS memo field. ASP writes these messages correctly retaining CR LF to
generate new paragraphs. (have checked this in the actual data base).
However , when I retrieve a message into another web page, the CR LF
characters are lost, and the message displays as one long sequence of
unformatted text. Anyone any idea how I can overcome this?
Using WIN XP/FP2000/IIS and the following code:-
<%
set objconn = server.createobject ("ADODB.connection")
set objrec = server.createobject ("ADODB.recordset")
objconn.open "DSN=daters"
strsql = "SELECT messages.text FROM messages WHERE messid = 305 ;"
objrec.open strsql, objconn, adopenforwardonly, adlockoptimistic,adcmdtext
%>
<%=objrec("text")%>
Thanks in advance Hugh 3 1475 http://www.aspfaq.com/2188

I just use something along the lines of;
Replace(rst("TheText"), vbCrlf, "<br>")
Which suffices......
