Inserting blank lines between paragraphs [was: no subject]

[Eric Chatonet]

Hi John,

Try:
put the htmlText of fld "Notes" into tHtml
replace "</p>" & cr with "</p>" & cr & "</p><p>"  & cr in tHtml
set the htmlText of fld "Notes" to tHtml

1. This will insert a blank line between paragraphs.
2. Always work on the html by putting it into a variable first.

Best Regards from Paris,

Eric Chatonet.
