Dennis,

I am going to assume that you meant memo field and not memo file.

Since there is no way, at present, to lock the size of the memo field, you
can either increase the size of the print area or read the memo into a
single dummy field and then use wordwrap to create you output, or export it
to a word processing program.

Now if you are printing this from IUA, you could use fomm form name (define
this form as one line) with wordwrap to create each line and keep looping
until all of the text is printed.
