QUESTION POSED ON: 05 April 2003
Can a text field wrap when defined in a printer file? I need variable text to print on an A/P check and do not want to format a single 160 byte field into four, forty byte fields. Is there a way to accomplish this task?

I don't think this is possible. Word wrapping is available only in display files.
