Line Feed in Report from Unbound Txtbox

I have a form with a unbound txtbox. I want the input to be free form
including line feeds. Which I found can be accomplished at input with a cntrl
Enter combination. I then want to print this input on a report exactly how
it was entered on the form. It only prints on one line. Is there any way to
accomplish this?
 
In the Report (rptShipNotice) there is an unbound text box with the control
source set to =[Forms]![frmShippingNoticeSetup]![txtBillToBox] which is the
form (frmShippingNoticeSetup) that has the free form text box.

Thanks for all your help Doug
 
That works fine for me, as long as the CanGrow property for the text box in
the report is set to True.

I don't know what to suggest.

Yes in both the report and unbound text box in the form.

Have you set the text box's CanGrow property to True in the report?
