I need help saving the value from a multiline text box in Access 2013.
Hi Experts,
I need help saving text from a multi line textbox in ACCESS 2013.
I have set the text box's Enter Key Behavior to New Line in Field. I have also added a verticle scroll bar to the text box.
In View mode, the text box acts like a multi line control. The cursor moves to the next line when the enter key is pressed, and I am able
to enter multiple lines of text. I am also able to scroll up and down the control.
However, when I save the record, only the first line of text is saved. How can I make it so all of the text is saved in the database from the
multiline?
Thanks in advance,
mrotor

Another trick is SHIFT-F2, which brings up a Zoom window specifically to see multi-line text from a smaller text field.
