Can someone direct me or help me?
I need the following query to break the Comments field into 4 pieces and then 
put them one below each other:

set nocount on
declare @NewLine char(55) =  CHAR(13) + CHAR(10)
Print 'Change # Submitted Date Completed Date Type of Change Assigned to 
Description of Change'
Print '________ ______________ ______________ ______________ ___________ 
_____________________'
Print ' '
select convert(char(8),CMServiceEventMain.MessageID),
       convert(char(10),CMServiceEventMain.DateAdded,101),
          convert(char(10),CMServiceEventDetail.DateClosed,101),
       
convert(char(15),ServiceItem_DetailEntry_ValueLists.DetailEntryListValue),
       convert(char(4),CMServiceEventMain.OfficerAdded),
       substring(convert(char(256),CMServiceEventDetail.Comments),0,255), 
@NewLine + SPACE(53) +
          substring(convert(char(256),CMServiceEventDetail.Comments),256,511),  
@NewLine + SPACE(53) +
          substring(convert(char(256),CMServiceEventDetail.Comments),512,767),  
@NewLine + SPACE(53) +
          substring(convert(char(256),CMServiceEventDetail.Comments),768,1023)

from CMServiceEventDetail, ServiceItem_DetailEntry, 
ServiceItem_DetailEntry_ValueLists, ServiceEvent_UDValues, CMServiceEventMain
where OfficerAssignedTo='Q_ChangeControl'
  and CMServiceEventDetail.MessageID=ServiceEvent_UDValues.EventID
  and CMServiceEventMain.MessageId=ServiceEvent_UDValues.EventID
  and ServiceEvent_UDValues.UDItemEntryID=ServiceItem_DetailEntry.DetailEntryID
  and 
ServiceEvent_UDValues.Value=ServiceItem_DetailEntry_ValueLists.DetailEntryListValueID
Order by CMServiceEventMain.MessageID

So we should have:
Change # Submitted Date Completed Date Type of Change Assigned to Description 
of Change
________ ______________ ______________ ______________ ___________ 
_____________________
1        xx/xx/xxxx  yy/yy/yyyy    software      me     comment1
                                                       Comment2
2        xx/xx/xxxx  yy/yy/yyyy    software      me     comment1
                                                       Comment2
                                                       Comment3

Etc..
What am I doing wrong with the newline that all the comment2 through 4 are left 
justified and appear in the Change # area (Or it looks that way.)
My space(53) is not padding the line to push the comments up under each other.
