Line break

Hello, I created a table in a form (from a table). This table populates as I fill in my table.
This table contains a DESCRIPTION column.
This field obviously has a width, but even if the description is long, it appears on a single line (which is loooong) and therefore does not fully display in my column.

I would like to create a line break in this column field so that when the text reaches the width of the field, it wraps to the next line.

Can someone help me with this?

Hi,

what control did you use in your form? What view mode are you in?
Because I'm afraid that might not be possible...

Sorry, but what do you mean by control?

I have a column in my form table
I switch to creation mode and I would like to know if by bringing up the property sheet I could do something to make the line break active (or by VBA if necessary)

A form comprises objects within it that can display or act upon the functioning of the database; these are called controls: list box, text box, button, radio buttons, etc.
Each of these controls can have a particular behavior, depending on its type.
However, from a form, one can switch to 'datasheet' view, for example, where the controls will be of no use since the display will be completely different.
It is therefore important that you specify in what form your form is displayed and if it is in 'tabular' mode, which controls it comprises, particularly the one for which you wish a line break.
