This is most strange! I have text inserted all through my databases
with line breaks, form feeds, carriage returns and other control
characters inserted just fine. I didn't do anything special to achieve
this either...

I think an example of what you are doing, showing the results that you
get from it, is most likely to elicit a solution.
