I have a memo routine that pulls down a table. The user selects a five
character macro expression that later gets expanded wwhen the contents
of the memo field are to be displayed or printed.

The pull down table can only show a limited number of characters in a
typical tbrowse (say 70). I sem to recall mention of a multiline
variatiuon that would effetively allow word-wrap, enabling larger texts
to be referenced by the macro expression.

Has anyone any knowledge of such a thing?

TIA
