I would love it to be possible to change single line text into multi line text.

I am always having to update old drawings done using DText and it can be very time consuming when editing a lot of notes.

I would just like to both ask a question and clarify my wish :

In full AutoCAD does this change just one line of text into a multi-text format?
Or can you select say, 10 lines of D-text and change them into one M-text box?

It is the latter that I wish for! It would make life SOOO much easier!!!
