try instead to 
put it & cr before fld x
or 
put cr & it after fld x
depends how you want to manage blank lines in your field later...
if fld x is not empty then put cr after it 
put it before fld x
or again...
put fld x & cr & it into fld x -- but I would avoid this...
but if you are doing loops it's better and faster to
put fld x into thislist
repeat for each line thisline of thisotherlist
  if thisline is not among the lines of thislist then
    put thisline & CR after thislist
  end if
end repeat
delete last char of thislist
...
just an example 103...
cheers
