Your right it does not wrap it.  That sucks.  Never had a need to do that
before.

I'm running CA v3r2.  Lamar is using CAE 5.1.  When you mentioned Field
Wrap, I was referring to how it works on CA v3r2.  The help text I quoted
seems to indicate that it doesn't function for the purpose that Lamar was
asking about.

Someone else posted a link to an IBM page about a new feature PTF'd for CAE
which appears to add a new type of pasting option that seems to fit Lamar's
bill.

Ahh.  If you're copying text from our list email and pasting that, the line
breaks are already fed in (by the list server software?).  Try copying a
3-line paragraph from a Word document and pasting it to command screen; I'm
betting only the line that the cursor is on gets filled.  Let me know if I'm
wrong!
