Re: AnsiString and the LineFeed char

I tried \r\n as you suggested and I see the \r\n characters in my TMemo. 
I don't understand why my \n is not being interpreted correctly. If I 
hardcode the AnsiString with a \n in the middle, then the TMemo displays 
the AnsiString as 2 lines, as expected. But, if I use TButton->Hint and 
set that value in the Object Inspector, then I get a \\n or \\r\\n in my 
AnsiString and a \n or \r\n in my TMemo with no line breaks. If the 
debugger shows the string as containing a \\r\\n, and assuming that that 
  is what is stored in the AnsiString, then that would explain why I see 
\r\n in the TMemo rather than a linefeed... :(
