In Visual Basic you can also use vbCrLf (visual basic carriage return line
feed):
If Rough is your text field:
Rough = "N13659" & vbCrLf & "H3583" & vbCrLf & "G4837Y"

Subject: [Vantage] Off-Topic Visual Basic Carriage Return on text
output?
I know this is really far off-topic, but I am still hoping one of the
programming guru's on this list will be able to help me. I am trying to
return text from an if, then statement in visual basic and I need to test to
be multiple lines long. For example, If Orbit > .0143 then Rough = "N13659"
[carriage Return] "H3583" [Carriage return] "G4837Y"
So the output I would be lines of text as follows:
N13659
H3583
G4837Y
I cannot figure out how to put a carriage return in there. Does anybody
know?
Thanks so much for any feedback.
