Text Wrapping



Hi

I have a problem with text wrapping and need a solution.

Ok, here's the deal:

Say I want to print a text field with a lenght of 200 chars.  My page is
of width 74 (columns).  I Print it like this:

Print &ldtext (1,1) Wrap 70 5

Now, when you look at the output, it's something like this:

1
                   74
| text text text text text text text.
            |

So, the text does not go through to position 74.  I know the problem is
occuring because of the fact that I use Arial 10.  Arial 10 is smaller
than one column in SQR.  Two possible solutions: use Courier 10 or make
the text uppercase, BUT I need to print it in Arial 10, Sentance case.
Any answers?

Thank you
