    Default new line character?

    I need to load text dynamically into a text box in director that I have
    turned into a 'select list' or 'popup' text field. How should I format the
    text file so that it breaks the lines in the correct place and the 'select
    list' works appropriately?

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Default new line character?

    I have asked this question before, but I apologize, I forgot the answer.

    I am dynamically populating a text field with a list, and then I want to add
    an element to the top of the list. I can use put..before, but this make the
    text that I add run into the first line of the text that was already there.
    Is there a way to user put...before and make it just down a line before it
    starts to fill in the rest of the list, like a new line character or
    something?

    thanks
