ACC2000: Can't Use ENTER to Move Data to Next Line of Wizard
This article was previously published under Q199086
Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.
When you use the Label Wizard to create labels in Microsoft Access, you are
not able to move field names to the next line of the label by pressing
ENTER or ALT+ENTER.
To move a field name to the next line of the label in the wizard, you need
to cut and then paste it. In the Label Wizard, use CTRL+X to cut and CTRL+V to paste.
Steps to Reproduce Behavior
- Open the sample database Northwind.mdb.
- Use the Label Wizard to create a new report based on the Customers
table.
- On the first screen of the wizard, accept the defaults, and then click Next twice.
- On the What would you like on your mailing label? screen, in the Available Fields box, double-click CustomerID and CompanyName.
- In the Prototype label box, add three spaces between CustomerID and CompanyName.
- While the mouse pointer is between CustomerID and CompanyName, press
ENTER or ALT+ENTER to try to place CompanyName on the next line.
Note that the CompanyName field does not move to the next line.
For more information about using the Label Wizard, click
Microsoft Access Help on the
Help menu, type
create mailing and other types of labels in the Office Assistant or
the Answer Wizard, and then click

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
