Update: Still no joy. I've tried everything that has been suggested and the only one that "works" is the padding of the message on a single line with lots of white space to simulate starting on the next line. I imagine there is a line length limit in doing this and this won't work for a mixed environment where some users are 80 characters wide and others are 132 wide.
Each change attempted, I stopped telnet service, saved the change, then restarted telnet. I then started a new telnet session through Dynamic Connect and see the modifications, just not the desired results. The \ commands are just displayed as normal characters and modifying msg.text did not have any effect. I guess I'm going to make a call to IBM. Thanks everyone for your suggestions and ideas. I'll post what I end up with by going directly to IBM on this.
