Still having problems, I might be dumb.

I cannot keep paragraphs in a News Feed pulling from MS Access. My original post is gone, so I can't thank the gentleman who offered a javascript suggestion; however it did not work. Am I missing something really obvious? Thanks in advance to anyone who can't point me toward the light.

You have to insert html formated text into you database. The reason: access is pulling plain text from your db. So if you need your formatting use the <p> tag when entering data into your db. The best thing you can do is making an insert page. Use the html editor extension

You could use

<& Replace( rsRec("databasefield", vbCr, "<br>" %>
