If you are running Windows, the issue is that in a dialog box, Windows translates the Enter key as a shortcut for the OK button.

Ctrl+Enter will add a new line to text being entered in a multi-line edit control without causing the dialog to close.

Thanks for the reply. I am running Windows XP Pro.

I tried using Ctrl Enter but that closed the window also.

I see what the problem is now.  I have fixed it for the next version.

In the meantime, you could copy a line ending from the Caption field and paste it into the Special Instructions field.
