Hi,
I have a LotusScript macro that makes changes to a document. In amongst these changes, I wish to add a value to the start of a text field, but on a new line
in that text field rather than just appended straight to what's already there.
I'm currently trying with this:
doc.Edit_History = "Change: " + Format$(Now(),"dd/mm/yy hh:mm:ss") + Chr$(13) +
Chr$(10) + doc.Edit_History(0)
But... the CR and LF get replaced by strange block characters after this has been run. Also, any new lines already in the text field (placed there by @NewLine from a formula-based macro) are changed to these characters...
Any ideas?
Thanks,

This answer comes after 10 year. Was doubtful whether to post it.. But someone else may be benefited.
The following code will insert a line before and after insertion text.
uidoc.InsertText Chr$(10) & insertionText & Chr$(10)
I tried different combinations before arriving at this.
Thank you
Mert
