If you're doing string concatenation, you don't even need an 
underscore, you can just leave a hanging "&" and continue with 
another string on the next line.  Otherwise, as far as I know, you do 
have to put it all on one line.

If you do split string expressions across lines that way, be warned 
that it will screw up the IDE's debugger, putting the cursor on the 
wrong line when you get an error.  I keep meaning to fix this and 
submit a patch but it's pretty rare that I split strings like that.
