Memo field - data all over the place

N

Newbie

Hi
Access XP

I have a form with an unbound memo field and I seem to have a few problems:
(data is later inserted into a SQL database)

1) If a user clicks into the field - it starts typing at the point of the
click

2) Even though the memo field is a lot wider - when you type I get the
following effect:
These are some
notes

3) If the user presses enter for a carriage return I get control-characters
(little squares) appear in the database field

How can I fix these?
