For the limited amount it can process, the set field command of: $PROCESS$ echo "$Email Body$" | /home/aramey/html2text-0.003/html2text.pl Works perfectly. Thanks for the help so far. I'll look into ARSPerl to see about going deeper into this.

I assumed....and yes, I know what they say about assumed: "50 bonus points for using all of your tiles in Scrabble" :) The @@: can be dropped if this is in a filter. Curious: What does $Email Body$ contain? If it is the full email body that could be causing the issue. The $PROCESS$ command tops out at 4096 characters long according to the workflow object guide: The $PROCESS$ tag indicates that all text that follows is a command line. The command line can include substitution parameters from the current screen to enable values to be placed into the command line before it is executed. You can enter as many as 255 characters for your command definition. The command can be as many as 4096 characters after the substitution parameters are expanded --- J.T.

Change the set fields to something like $PROCESS$ @@:echo $HOSTNAME And see if that sets the field. If it does try $PROCESS$ @@:echo ""$Request ID"" (or some other, short field) If that works, it may not be liking fact that the return has multiple lines. It may see that as multiple values and not a single value for the set fields. --- J.T.
