&#xD;
&#xD;
Hello,  I am using the Requirements tab in the Excel export template to import requirements into SpiraTest v4.0. For column C (Requirement Description) I have celss with mulitple lines of text (i.e., there is a carriage return after each line of text). When this imports into SpiraTest the carriage returns are lost. Is there a method, such as a special character, that I can use to force the carriage returns to be retained when the text is imported into SpiraTest?  Thanks in advance to anyone who can help! </description><language>en-US</language><copyright>(C) Copyright 2006-2026 Inflectra Corporation.</copyright><managingEditor>support@inflectra.com</managingEditor><category domain="http://www.dmoz.org">/Computers/Software/Project_Management/</category><category domain="http://www.dmoz.org">/Computers/Software/Quality_Assurance/</category><generator>KronoDesk</generator><a10:contributor><a10:email>support@inflectra.com</a10:email></a10:contributor><a10:id>http://www.inflectra.com/kronodesk/forums/threads</a10:id><ttl>120</ttl><link>/Support/Forum/spiratest/issues-questions/757.aspx</link><item><guid isPermaLink="false">threadId=757</guid><author>Dave Winkler (dave.winkler@commscope.com)</author><category domain="http://www.inflectra.com/kronodesk/thread/tag">excel</category><category domain="http://www.inflectra.com/kronodesk/thread/tag"> import</category><title>Import From Excel, Force a Carriage Return</title><description> &#xD;
