long text with blank lines

Hi;
im trying to create sort of a contract in RS, ill get some information from
an employee table, but most of the report is plain-fixed text. Im not sure
but i think the best way to do it is using only a detail band (ill need to
print a contract by employee), and use textboxes for the text...
but... i noticed i cant insert blank lines in a textbox (nothing happends
when i press return) and im not sure about my approach...
Any advice?

If I understand you correctly, you should concatenate the employee
table info w/the plain-fixed text as part of the stored procedure/
query that sources your report. Also, you could try using a table
control to create spaces if necessary. Hope this helps.
