I am not a developer and I have searched this forum, but do not have a solution to my “problem.”
I have a form for which I would like to have a field (multivalue) which captures some historical data. I would like to have each entry in the field to be bulleted. In looking at the field properties, I see where I can specify bulleted lists. However, that only numbers things if I have additional lines after the field (not within the field).
Does anyone have any ideas on how to accomplish this?
Thanks

The following should be passable.
Hide your original field.
Create a computed for display field. Mark it to allow multi values. Mark it to display multi values with a new line or a blank line. For that fields computed value use the following.
" * " + YourTextListHere

In a bulleted list, each bullet point is a paragraph. A Text field is displayed in a single paragraph. Inside that paragraph there can be line breaks, but a line break is not the same as a new paragraph. So the entire Text field can only have one bullet point.To display the field’s values in separate paragraphs, you can write LotusScript code to create Rich Text from the Text field. In a Rich Text field you can have many separate paragraphs, with a bullet point for each. It seems like a lot of trouble to go to for only a small improvement in appearance.
