My HR department has an application that reads data from a SQL 2000
server and displays it in ASP. In the job description field that they
have to complete, there are three different areas that need to be
highlighted-Job Responsibilities, Knowledge/Experience and
Skills/Abilities. They input the info with line breaks to separate the
areas, but when the application displays them, they all run together
into one paragraph.

Is there a command that you can place inside of the data cell to allow
for each element to be displayed without running all together?

This software does not allow for the user to go in and easily make
changes to the

From what I gather, if the users are entering in line breaks then that
information is stored (unicode) in the database field. However, this
information isn't always transformed correctly to the web. In ASP you can
call a replace function to replace all line breaks (ascii chars 10 & 13)
with HTML equivalents such as the space &nbsp; or line break <br> as needed.
