I known this was answered , but could not locate. Sad  I want to make a single line field into a two line field, but can't remember  ??? or find instructions on adding a space between fields to let me expand one line to two lines.

1.  In the Layout Designer, select the field you want to be two lines. 

2.  On the Property Editor, select the Tab for TEXT. 

3.  In the third section of that window, change the combobox default from Label to Text. 

4.  Now in the second section of that window, change the combobox default from Single Line to Multi Line. 

5.  Now Save the Layout Design.

Bob,
Thanks for quick reply. However I have done that and now need  to enlare box to show two lines of text and that makes box overlay the field below.  So I need a blank line to enlarge box without any overlay.

The description of your problem is not clear to me.

1.  You could consider move and/or resize the fields.

2.  If that cannot be done, , then try using a smaller font.  In the same area that you selected Multi Line, have "Set" in the third section use the value Text; now try changing to a smaller font size.

Sorry It not clear.  I don't want a smaller font and I do want to resize the field as two lines.  I translaed a Q&A file which had a two line field but got a single line in Sesame with next several fields making a row directly under the first field.  In Q&A "Enter" would move the next row down to permit a resize.  But Sesame will not.
