IplayWoW Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 I'm setting up a Price Summary database using Many-to-Many relationships. Basically, I have a long description of a machine that is being sold and I have simply entered the data in a large field that ultimately, through a relationship of a product id, leads to a printable layout. My problem is the return paragraphs/enters are recognized as a new value in the value list and not all the information is present in the printable format. How do I prevent this or get around it?
Matthew F Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 My problem is the return paragraphs/enters are recognized as a new value in the value list and not all the information is present in the printable format. I'm not sure what you're striving for. It is normal behavior that Value Lists are separated by returns. I can see how this effects pop-up lists but I don't understand how this would effect what you print out.
Vaughan Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 If your descriptions are long enough to require multiple paragraphs, then they are probably way too long for a value list anyway. Create a "short description" field and limit to a couple of words, and display this in the value list.
