    Aha, I thought you already knew that. I should have asked for your actual code when you didn't provide it by yourself. Try giving us all details next time.

    Hi Martin,


    I found a solution : 

    I convert the container into str using con2Str like this : con2Str(MyContainer,"\n");

    Think again whether you can't simply have several lines in the grid. If not, make sure you set Multiline property of the string control.

    Note that I don't see any reason for using containers in this solution. Avoid them if they're not necessary, working with them in unnecessarily error-prone.

    Hi Martin, Thanks for your reply

    every item in sales line has many lengths like the image.

    I develop a display method that returns a container of length but when I run the code I don't get any thing.

    so I convert container to str when I run code I get values placed horizontally.

    I want to place it vertically.

    Please tell us where you want "to place" these values. In a report? In a form? Or somewhere else?

    Note that you probably shouldn't convert values to a string in the first place. For example, you could put values to a temporary table and put them to a form grid or table on a report.
