When I try to display my text from a cell in ASP it comes out as one long batch, if i veiw it in a text area it displays breaks and lines.. 

http://cms-stu-iis.gre.ac.uk/wn008/project/site/  then click on info

Do i need to adjust the cell properties in order for it to display returns/breaks in the page as well?

Many thanks in advance..

Text you entered in a textbox is not "understood" by vbscript so a simple
mytext = Replace(rs("yourfield"),vbCrLf, "<br>")

Or more accurately ...
Text entered into a text box is plain text and text line breaks (vbCrLf) need to be changed into HTML breaks (<br>).
