Hi All,
In the past everyone has been very fast and helpful with my problems so thanks for that!

I have a new issue which google can't seem to answer, I have a Multi-line text box in a form which populates a merged will with its content, however it also adds the Carriage Return symbol (Square) into the cell, can anyone tell me how to fix this to stop it from being entered, or how I would go about parsing the entry of that particular symbol?

Thanks,
Chris

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
Replace as I did.
Code:
Sub t()
  Dim s As String
  s = "Hello" & vbCrLf & "World!"
  Range("A1").Value = s
  Range("A2").Value = Replace(s, vbCrLf, vbLf)
End Sub

Thanks that works great, and I can even reference the Text Fields' Name within the Replace rather then using the variable making it a one liner :D
