Okay... I set up a MV text field with INVOKE.TEXT.ED  in order to allow automatic word wrapping.  My user is entering customer contact notes, and since he's calling multiple people about the same issue, I showed him how to use /UK to set up short cut keys to save time and typing.

Well...

His message is longer than the width of the field using INVOKE.TEXT.ED.  When he uses the /UK shortcut, INVOKE.TEXT.ED does not wrap the text.  Apparently, since the white space characters aren't actually typed, INVOKE.TEXT.ED doesn't see the word breaks.

I know I can write a BASIC program to re-break the message in PASA, but I was hoping there was another way...

PS - We don't use GUI, so that's not an issue...

That's definitely an interesting bug!  Have you contacted your vendor about it?
