Thats true and I have tested using a \r in there but it is on the android emulator. Its just odd because at one point it was working fine. I can make a new string and put a \n in and it works fine. It just does not like the one that is taken out of the database. I have tried both importing in my own database and creating a new one with one row and both will not work. Is there a setting on the Textview that can disable this?
