Trying to dynamically build the PartDescription in a configurator.  In V8 I'd use the string "~n", but that's obvious Progress code.

Is there a CHR() or CHAR() like function?  Such that CHR(9) = TAB, CHR(10) = LF, etc ...

I don't even know what language the configurator code is in.  C Sharp?

There probably is but I use: System.Environment.NewLine
Because it’s long, I would assign it to a variable.
String nl = System.Environment.NewLine;

I was going to mention looking at the System.Environment namespace as well:

I've used  "\n" for newline type of results...
i.e.
partDESC = partDESC +  "\n" +	Inputs.cmbXXX.Value;
