Does anyone experience the 240 character per line limit problem when
exporting Excel files as Formatted Text (Space Delimited) (.prn).  We get a
lot of disks/tapes from clients with Excel files that need to be cleaned up
and exported and then uploaded to our 400. However, when we save as a space
delimited .prn file any columns over the 240 character limit wrap and the
file is useless.  We have developed procedures for a workaround, but it is
time consuming.  Microsoft gives a workaround with a macro written in Visual
Basic that is two pages long.  Is that our only fix?
