Line Break in Calculated Field-Solution

Sorry for delay in posting the solution for Line Break problem but got busy with some stuff. From all the discussion that we had, possible  3 solutions came up. The details of the solution are as following:

Configuration

Line Break in a Calculated field

Requirement: We have 4 address fields storing different details of addresses.  We need to display all this information in a single field but there should be line break after each address detail. For example let’s assume that below is the information contained in 4 address fields

Configuration

Display blank applet

Requirement:
If Activity is of type “Administration” then there is should blank space below “Activity List Applet” for Activities of other types it should show “Activity Form Applet.”
There can be several variations of this requirement but in simple words we would like to show blank space or hide an applet on certain condition.
