How do I create a field that I can use as a notes field. I cannot get the lines to show up and my cursor for the blinking line to let me know where I am typing is half the length of the field. Do not get me wrong the cursor is large but the text is exactly what I set "8 font". One more thing I have an auto enter script when someone edits an employee file. The script works almost worthlessly it always overwrites last note entered. It is suppose to Carrige Retunr at end but it has never gon to next line.

Thanks Tony D.

To get the lines to show up you need to go to layout, field borders and text baseline.

Is your autoenter script a script or an auto enter calc? And what is the current script / calc?

OK here is a mock copy of what I am doing see if you can tell me how to get it done. When you press end date it should do exactly what it does but will not goto nextline nor add text lines even though I added them.

Hi, I assume you would want the following ?

Employee File Edited by UserX @ 14:46:47 on 7/27/2005

Employee File Edited by UserY @ 08:15:11 on 7/20/2005

To do this you will need to add the field's original contents to the calculation. So your Set Field step in End Date would become

"Employee File Edited by" & " " & Staff::Userset & " " & "@" & " " & Staff::Timeset & " " & "on" & " " & Staff::Dateset & "
