Hi Thomas,

by "custom your theme", I mean the XSLT manakin theme. You will need to know a bit of code to do this. We have programmers that do this sort of customization for us, so I don't have the code myself to share, but if you are up for this level of coding, I can put you in touch with our programmer, who is happy to share.

and yes, having your data in separate fields (aka using the || in the CSV for upload ) is a pre-step.

kind regards,
Monica

Hi Thomas,

Are you asking how to place a "hard return" or line break within a single cell in excel?
if yes, then use ALT + Enter. This works for google spreadsheets as well.
Yeah, got that one figured out -- OpenOffice Calc it's Ctrl-Enter, Excel it's Alt-Enter (not really a spread sheet user but Helix84 pointed in the right direction).

However, such hard breaks may not be visible in your the DSpace interface (surplus spacing may be ignored for display purposes and text wrapped), and even if the data when exported to CSV has the line break. If you want data to display as separate lines, then you should enter them as separate values (using the double pipe as break) and then custom your theme to make these values display in single lines.
That is exactly what I'm trying to do! So, you're saying the || is the way to go? But, then, what does "custom your theme" mean; i.e., in what, where, how? Really don't have a clue there.

For example, please see display of subjects here http://scholarship.rice.edu/handle/1911/64520
Looks just what I'm aiming for.

Apologies, if this has already been answered.
None necessary, never too much information, eh?

kind regards,
Monica
Thank you,

Thomas
