Hi,
I have a situation where the users receive a number of daily operational reports within the body of their e-mail.
With Lotus Notes we are finding that the text gets wrapped at a point ( which unfortunately happens to be mid way through the report ) rendering the report unreadable.
The work around to this is that the user needs to go to the e-mail, double click on the body to go into edit mode, select all the text and then choose the “no wrap” option under the “text” tab.
This is impractical and a sheer waste of time on a daily basis for the users.
How do i default the setting of “No Wrap” for all incoming e-mail ?
Is it possible to have this setting enabled only for certain types of e-mail by setting “rules” ?

Is the report generated by LotusScript? If so, simply set the properties on the rich text item for the body to no-wrap. If the script generates multiple paragraphs, you may have to set the property on each paragraph. There is a max length on a paragraph (?64Kb?). It may be that there is more text than will fit in one paragraph. It may be that there is more than will fit in one RTF. Do you see multiple body fields in the doc? You may want to force paragraph breaks as the RTF is being built and continue to set the RTF property.

No, the report is not generated by Lotus Script. The report is generated on a Unix platform as a simple ASCII file. The only control characters contained in the report are page breaks

We’ve arrived at a workaround that helps resolve this issue.
We’ve created a “Button” that will automate the process of setting the alignment to “No Wrap”.
The formula box of this button has the following command :
@Command([OpenDocument]);
@Command([EditDocument]);
@Command([EditSelectAll]);
@Command([TextAlignNone]);
@Command([EditDeselectAll]);
@Command([FileSave])
