Rick Text Format of Text Box is replacing carriage returns in memo field with spaces.

[stevemig]

I have a report with a text box (using Rich Text format) with the following Control Source:
=[Description] & "<font size=2><i>" & [code] & "</i></font>"

Description is a memo field with carriage returns. When I preview the report, all of the carriage returns are replaced with spaces.

Everything was fine when it was plain text, but I really need the code field in italics on the same line. I can't figure out a solution.

Rich Text, not "Rick Text" of course. :-)
I'm wondering if I can do something like this:
=Replace([Description], find some character???, <br>)

?

I figured out the solution:
=Replace([Description],Chr(13) & Chr(10),"<br>")
