Thanks all.
 
Looks like the only fix is to upgrade to the current version :-(

MI Pro v7.8 increased the max length of text strings to 2047 characters, so it seems you're 1 version out.
 
Otherwise, you just have to be careful with alignment and then you can position multiple text strings to look as though they are one and the same.  You still have to use this approach if you want multiple fonts/styles or special symbols in your text string.
 

Cheers,
Martin

Subject: [MI-L] MI7.5 Text Dialog Limited Characters

Hi.
 
I am attempting to create a text box on my Layout with the usual disclaimers.  I am finding that I am limited in the number of characters that a single text box can contain.  Does anyone know how to increase the number of characters in a text box or another way around this?
 
Regards,
