It gets 'put' alright, but card field "plan" loses all previous formatting.
Big, big bug if it changes folks' stacks forever!

I'd report it, since 7.0 isn't supposed to introduce any unexpected
behavior.

But I'm curious if it would work if you instead do this:

   put "absolutely anything" into char 1 to -1 of line linNum of card
field "plan"

Just a guess. I know in some cases character properties are retained
where line properties aren't; for instance, backcolor.

It's an odd regression, since the paragraph formatting was deeply overhauled for v5.5, where I would have expected to see things like this show up.

Mark, thanks for helping to test v7.0 to better ensure that the final release fully meets your needs.

After you file the bug report, please note the bug report number here so we can follow it.

Thanks -
