Soap .NET webservice in Powerbuilder 11.5.1 not passing carriage returns

Hi all

So I'm having a problem with a SOAP connection in powerbuilder not passing carriage returns along into a string.

I start with a block of text into a MultiLineEdit.

The text from there then gets put into a String variable.

This text then gets put into one of the SOAP variables that uses a string.  (NOT a normalizedString)

This is then sent to the webservice.

When I check the XML using SOAPUI, it looks like there are no carriage returns being sent / saved so when I get the data back, it's all in one string.

Question is, how to I keep the carriage returns?
