Robert,

This from my archive of useful tips!

If P1F1 is a freeform text field such as A25A4, the following will put individual lines into seperate Report Variables:

Line 1 of P1F1: subfield[P1F1;0;1]
Line 2 of P1F1: subfield[P1F1;0;2]
Line 3 of P1F1: subfield[P1F1;0;3]
etc.

The subfield[P1F1;0;n] formula should work in a regular text field too.

Thanks again Tim:
You were right about the WMF problem. The correct font was not installed in the 2 workstations. The WMF works now. Is is possible to convert a multiline text field (A0A0) to multiple regular text fields (Ax) so I can use substring/subfield functions and embed characters? Robert Kendall
