Sometimes we are required to insert data from a text box in a web application into FileMaker database by adding some new line characters into it. This is especially so, while inserting the data retrieved from a set of checkboxes or while passing more than one script parameters to run a script which should be separated by new line characters.

The new line character can easily be inserted into FileMaker database by adding the character “\r” or chr(13) in the data where the new line is required.
