I'm not quite sure what you need but, in general, to add lines to the
bottom of the existing display in a editor control

form.editor1.value += trim(form.entryfield1.value+chr(13)+chr(10)

If you want to insert the line at the top of the exiting display

form.editor1.value =
trim(form.entryfield1.value)+chr(13)+chr(10)+form.editor1.value
