Thanks for the fast reply. Now I know how to create a view, but can you help me out creating a view where that column only shows a title and everything when viewed?

Hi,<br />
you may create a Calculated column which just gets the first line (or the first x characters) of the comment field. Use this field in the overview view whereas you use the comment column in the detailed view.<br />

Ok I think I understand. In the normal view I can just leave the comment column out. In full view it appears with all the text. That will do it for me!

Yep that's exactly it. Summary for the default view and full text when viewing an individual item

Hi,<br />
<br />
I'm just playing with SharePoint Foundation a little bit. I've created a custom list with a column called 'comment'. There can be 10 lines of text in that column. <br />
<br />
What i want to achieve is that only 1 line is shown in the list in normal view. When i click on the header of the list to go to the full view of the list, then all lines in the column are shown. <br />
<br />
Hope I made myself clear..... Seems hard to explain in English :).
