A field has a limit on the amount of characters you can have on each line. What if I put the text of a field in a variable and it has 500,000 characters. Then I strip all of the returns that are in the field. Does that leave only one line with 500,000 characters? That exceeds the amount of characters allowed per line so what happens to the text in the variable?
Another similar question is what happens if I am reading a file until the end and it is very large. Will returns be automatically placed if needed so the line limit got characters is not exceeded or do I need to read large files in sections that are less than the line limit for characters?
