Can Text fields hold multi line addresses?

[John Marshall, MVP]

Is it possible to use a text field to hold multi-line information?

In a form, when I hit a carriage return it takes me to the next field rather
than entering a new line in the text field.

Of course, five minutes after posting, I find the answer.

On the text box property under the Other tab is a property called "Enter Key
Behavior" with a choice of "default" or "New line in field".

Text boxes have a property called "Enter Key Behavior". Set it to True
(called "New Line In Field" in the GUI)
