New line inside textbox for dynamic fields

[Janitha]

In my report I have used textboxes with "Fields" property to dynamically bind the data using CSV data sources. But in these text boxes I need to use line breaks/new lines using only one Fielld. For example I should be able to make csv field as "Janitha \n Silva" and in text box automatically new line should be added. I know that this can be done by using htmltextboxes. But I need to know is there any way to do this by using only textboxes, not htmltextboxes.

Hello ,

New line escape won't be recognized by TextBox item. You can either set already formatted text as a TextBox's value or use built-in text functions or custom functions to format the string.

For example, inserting a new line can be achieved with Format() function:

= Format("First line: {0}
Second line: {1}", Fields.DataField1, Fields.DataField2)

You can use TextBox in-place editing to insert a new line with CTRL-Enter.

What do you mean by ' already formatted text' ? Can you give an example.

Hi ,

For example, when the text that you set as TextBox's value already has line breaks or they were entered using TextBox in-place editing to insert a new line with CTRL-Enter.
