Enter/Return = New Value in Value List?

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?

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.

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.
