I will be importing a short 'Breakout Session description' from our ESS system into Arev (ASCII file). Although 'short' it will be four sentences long and could be quite a bit of characters.
It certainly will be too long to show in my screen. Can I import into a multivalued field, or can I limit the width of the text and have it flow to more than one line so it is readable on my new screen? We will also use it in a merged letter to confirm the Breakout Sessions.
Thanks for any ideas!!

I don't know how you will be viewing the data in ARev but you can select all the text and press ctl-z which will format it to fit to whatever size edit window it is in.
Or, to handle it on the import, you can specif a CONV of T#ww where ww is the column width you want.
Donna,
Why not write a small subroutine which formats it to the specific lengths that you want. Just pass the textlen parameters etc and format the text.
