Hi @malinthawarnakulasooriya08 ,
Text fields in the Report Designer support HTML. You could use the replace function to replace your regular expression with an html line break, something like this:
=replace(eInventoryItem.Desc],’1x ‘, ‘<br>’)
I believe ConvertHtmlToText should be False, which is the default.
Hope this helps!
