Hello,
When I define a multi-line field on a form, it works fine on the grid with Characters
a
b
c
d
But when I enter numbers, they stay on 1 line
1
2
3
=> 123
Did you notice this point on your sheets ?
Hi,
It will work if you write it as below with a punctuation.

If there are LOTS of these, I'd suggest have a special character or key word <>, replace-me, work-around, whatever, that won't have false positives when doing the find a replace on the whole sheet or column.
I hope this helps

I have a workspace that I am looking to move items from into a new workspace. The reason I want to do this is becasue there are individuals that have access to the original workspace that do not need access to everything that is currently in the workspace. In the original workspace is a MAIN document that holds all…
