Try to put the text you yant in a message box with the print command in MB and draw a frame in the layout window. In this frame you can put the contains of your message box.
I hope that's will help you

I have a situation where
I am exceeding the maximum allowable text
limits for MI.
I am attempting to add in a fairly lengthy disclaimer that
has to go onto
all mapping products & find that it can't be done all in one
go. I have
tried unsuccessfully:-
- typing it in directly onto the layout window, (doesn't work as
it exceeds
text limit),
- opening it up as a delimited ascii (.txt) file, (it opens up in
columns) &
- typing disclaimer in sections, aligning it up as best possible
& saving as
a table. Trouble is it has to be moved around & manipulated
to suit on
different size maps. I guess my question simply is "Can the
text limit be
altered say through Mapbasic?"
