Carriage returns

I'm migrating from Crystal. When I inserted address fields which contained
carriage returns, Crystal seemed to recognise them automatically, putting
the second line beneath the first line, etc. RS doesn't do this - obviously
I have to do something more explicit. Cam anybody help?
ThanksFirst: You need SP1. Second: I've only had success with carriage returns
when there physically was a CRLF pair. With the HTML output, the <BR> tags
are not rendered unless said CRLF pair exist.
