Default Line breaks

I'm doing a mail merge from Access using the mail merge wizard. My address
field has the whole address in one field, separated by commas. I would like
to insert a line break after each comma, so that each line of the address
appears on a separate line in the Word doc.

I assume there is a special character I need to insert in the address field
after each comma to achieve this. I have tried a few (^p, ^|, chr(13), /n
etc), but when I do the mail merge it just displays those characters in the
word document. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
