From: BootieDay on
I imported MySQL tables into an Access MDB and confirmed that the Access
table preserved the embedded new line (0x0A) characters within a memo field.
I then used an Access append query to insert data into a linked MS-SQL 2000
table consisting of an NTEXT field. The embedded newline characters were
dropped. What do I need to do to preserve this (and other) embedded "special
characters" for formatting? thx

It shouldn't be dropped. Could do the append query with profiler on and see
what the query being sent is? This will let us point a finger at the right
tool.
