I have a dataItem that is a text memo field. When I use
<%#container.Da taItem('memoTex t')%>, it displays it with no line breaks.
Is there a function to convert the line breaks on the memo field?
Thanks,
George 2 3437
You'll need to replace line breaks: &vbcrlf
With line break tag <br>
And vice versa when putting the data into a textarea for editing.

Hi George,
When you display this in a textbox it should display fine. If you use a label you need to convert the line breaks with <br> or <p> tags. Here's a routine that I use for this:
/// <summary>
/// Fixes a plain text field for display as HTML by replacing carriage returns
/// with the appropriate br and p tags for breaks.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="String Text">Input string</param>
/// <returns>Fixe d up string</returns>
public static string DisplayMemo(str ing HtmlText)
{
HtmlText = HtmlText.Replac e("\r\n","\r" );
HtmlText = HtmlText.Replac e("\n","\r");
HtmlText = HtmlText.Replac e("\r\r","<p>") ;
HtmlText = HtmlText.Replac e("\r","<br>" );
return HtmlText;
}

Hi folks,
I have an Access 2000 db with a memo field.
Into the memo field I put text with bold attributes, URL etc etc
What I need to to is converting the rich text contained into the memo
field in plain text.
That's because I truncate the string text but if, when I truncate it
there's a rich tag the code following the truncated string is corrupted.
Don't know if it's clear enough.

I want to create two buttons on a form. One would allow the user to
Copy the contents of the current records memo field, the other would
allow them to print. I set up a report based on the memo field, and
it works. But, it seems wrong since I had to create a huge text box to
accommodate memo fields with a lot of text.
Thanks for any help,

Hi all!
After a very long struggle I finally succeded in transferring my old
*.dbf file and the relating *.dbt (alias memo fields) to a pg table.
For the time being I put the memo field in a separate table having two
fields only (i.e.: n_memo integer, memo text) which can be related to
the main table in a view.

Hi All,
here is what I am trying to achieve. I have a memo field on a form which
users will need to add to as and when. I do not want them to be able to edit
information which already exists within this field.
My idea was to have the memo field locked on the form to stop edits.
Place a command button by the memo field which opens an unbound form with a
single text box.
The user enters their update into the unbound form and upon closing...

Hello,
I'm looking for a way to parse/format a memo field within a report.
The Access 2000 database (application) has an equipment table that
holds a memo field. Within the report, the memo field is printed within
the detailed area. The problem is, the apllication is not setup
properly, thus the users are entering data within the memo field as:

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
