I have a memo field on a form and i've just realised that by pressing the return key you move off the memo field and onto the next control. I pressed the return key to go to a new line, is this not possible?
 
Set property "Enter key behavior"

In design mode:
1. Select the memo field.
2. Open the properties window.
3. Click the "Other" tab.
4. In the "Enter key behavior" drop down list, choose "New line in field".

That should get you the behavior you expected.
 
Or - Shift-Enter


???

it's not your fault ...

in Access it should be ctrl-Enter
in Excel it is alt-Enter to right in the same cell
in Word it is Shift-Enter to write 2 lines in the same cell of a table

:rolleyes:
