Re: Using line breaks in text

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Leave the original Line breaks in the database. These are not really part of
the text (data), but part of the UI-specific formatting. Your ASP.Net app
should replace these with "<br />" during execution.

We have VS2005 ASP.NET 2.0 application that needs to have each paragraph
separated by a line break. I have added "<br />" into the text column
(SQL 2000) and it works fine when displaying on a web page (GridView).
However, when I export the to Excel it creates separate rows for each line
break, but I don't want that. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks.
