Hi All!
 
    I have a formula field named remarks in my report in which i Check several if conditions .
   I set the remarks to some text each time a condition is found true.
  For eg)
 WHilePrintingRecords;
  Global Stringvar remarks;
remarks:="";
    if cond1 is true then
   ( ..........
      ........
      remarks:="Line no" & " First Line";
    );
   if cond2 is true then
  (
    .........
    ........
    remarks:=remarks & "Line no" & "Second line";
   )
  I have to print them in separate lines.
For eg)  1. Cost is 0
              2. Cost is null
              3. Start Date is empty
The problem is all lines are getting printed continuously.
What is the substitue for "\n" in crystal Reports?
 
Thanks in advance!

ChrW(13) + ChrW(10).

So, the remarks:= lines in  your formula for Line 2 and higher would change to something like:

remarks := remarks & ChrW(13) & ChrW(10) & "Line no" & "Second Line"

I recommend putting it there and not at the end of every line so that you don't get an extra line feed at the end of your formula.
