how do you display multi line text

rgvgJun 5 2013 — edited Jun 5 2013
Hi

How does one display multi line text? I would like to display address information on the screen so that the user can select it and copy/paste it into another application (ms word).

I have the address information as separate columns (address1, address2, city, province, postal code) so I've changed the query on my view object to add it as address1 || chr(10) || address2 || chr(10) || city ....

If I display it on the page as an output text, it all displays as one line (okay, the chr(10) thing did not work but that's beside the point).

In general, is there a way to display multi line text? What component is suitable for this, if there is one?

Thanks
