Kevin,
  Depending on which word processor they are using, you may be able to
modify the configuration/options settings to have it store "hard
returns" rather than "soft returns" when it wraps.  Or you could get
your transcriptionists to "play typewriter".  In other words, hit
<Enter> manually when they approach the right margin.

Subject: [Hardhats-members] Grrrr!!! FTG^%ZISH looses data for
strings>255 characters

OK, I'm frustrated.

My transcriptionists are using a wordprocessors that
automatically wrap lines.  Thus a paragraph is stored
in a text file as one long line.  This is often longer
than 255 characters.  I was under the impression that
FTG^%ZISH was aware of this limitation and would wrap
the line when uploading strings.

It doesn't.

This means that I now have many progress notes that
have been erroneously truncated.

Any thoughts?

Kevin
