I am using SQL 2000 Reporting services. I am trying to show a person's address with a carriage return before the city. The address column is a varchar(400) and has already been concatenated from several attributes. I have tried inserting a char(10) + char(13) in the sql that builds the table. This appears to have no effect in the displayed and printed report. I have tried inserting a '<br>'. This just shows the <br>. I have looked around to see if there is a richtextbox control that I can add to my tool box. It seems I would have to pay for it.

Anybody been here?
Thanks,
Sherry

I would suggest you just split out the field in T-SQL select to make it into two fields, then you map them to different textbox fields on the report, which could sit on any locations you want.
