OK. Now I am beginning to see light at the end of the tunnel. If FTG^%ZISH has this, then it is a reasonable function.
I just looked up the documentation and you are right about this. It puts the extra text into a "OVF" node So this problem occurs when creating the TIU UPLOAD BUFFER file. This is then later cleaved into TIU DOCUMENTS, which are the individual notes. The vista module for this is TIUUPLD. I just did this: cat TIU* | grep "OVF" And I get no results. So all the TIU code is ignoring this possibility. I think this is because they published that all upload text is supposed to be composed of lines < 80 characters. Thanks for pointing this out. I'll see if I can create a fix for my situation and post what I find.
