Hank de Wit I just tried the same code and it did make all of the text visible, but it is also now showing <div> and <br> tags within the multiline text field. Any ideas why?

I found another solution: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/SharePoint/SharePoint-Online-Modern-Experience-Multi-Line-Field-Display/m-p/145739

André NesheimTo be more precise. In the column there is some text with more than one hyperlink and sometimes without hyperlinks. Thanks for the suggestion.
