Default Carriage Return in Word for a Mail Merge Field

This is similar to what I do in an application where I use OLE Automation to
control the Mail-Merge process. One field may have many "Lines". In the
Data Source they look like this:

"Field1", "Field2", "Field3"
"Sam Jones", "Book1CRBook2CRBook3CRBook4", "ID"

After I do the merge I then do a find and replace, replacing all CR with
^p.
