Crystal Text Object CRLF???
|

| Hi everyone,
I'm having a problem doing what should be a simple thing, but maybe I'm
missing something! I have a Crystal report with a text object on it.
In a VB.NET program, I am trying to populate the text object with the
following:
"This is line 1.
This is line 2.
This is line 3."
For some reason, I am unable to get the CRLF to work and all of the
text winds up on one line: "This is line 1.This is line 2.This is line
3." Here is the code I am using:
dim txt As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.TextObject
txt = rpt.ReportDefinition.ReportObjects.Item("txtObject1")
txt.Text = txtFooter.Text = "This is line 1." & Chr(13) & "This is line
2." & Chr(13) & "This is line 3"
I also tried using vbCRLF instead of Chr(13) and that did not work.
Does anyone have any idea as to what may be wrong??? Thank you very
much!!!

| If your output format is HTML, try using "<br />" instead of chr(13).
