How to line break in a textbox

In Designer, go to the Data View tab.  You should see a data connection.  Right-click on the data connection and select "Connection Properties".  The "Data Description Type" will tell you the type of data connection.

XML Schema

In which event should i put your code?

I found the solution!

I've put the ascii code for "new line" into my string where i wanted it to line break and i've pushed my string into the textbox using the data binding and it worked like a charm.

Thanks for all your help Justin!

Hi MTremblay-Savard,

I am trying to achieve the same as you without success - could you show be exactly what your string looks like?

thanks!

Hi,

to add a new line into a text field use \n within the string.

textField1.rawValue = "This\ntext\ncontains\nlinebreaks.";

What we're talking about here is not formatting the string in Javascript, but formatting a string that is passed into the form via a data connection. The value of the text field in the form is bound to the string in the data view. 

Try using this tool for all of your line break needs!
