I am concatenating 2 text fields in a rule and need to add a LF/CR between
them. All I am trying to do is append to an existing txt field with another
txt field but I want the appended data to start on a new line or new
paragraph.

Any ideas on how to do this in infopath?

My current action (on set a field's value[Comment]):
concat(Additional_Comments, " **** ", Comment)

Ideally, someone will tell me that I can replace the "****" with something
and it will work!

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi

How about concat(Additional_Comments, . , comment

With "." being the value of the field you are talking about
Additional_Comments

I am no 100% sure this will work in code but use it for dialogue box code in
Infopath and it works a treat.

Cheers Adam

Didn't work, but thanks for the effort! I assume that the ,., was a
comma-period-comma. It did syntax OK, but the result was as if it was a null
character inserted.

Any other suggestions?
