87218 2002-10-08 08:33:00 is this a(n) universal problem? - when copying /pasting from anything to email, the text lines are always broken, like the line doesn't end at the end of the page - am using netscape navigator/communicator - is there a setting somewhere? jayal (1291)
87219 2002-10-08 09:04:00 It's due to setting in OE so I presume Communicator is the same.

In OE it's found in Tools>Options>Send>Mail Sending Format (HTML or text box)>Automatically wrap text at n characters.....

It is probably somewhere similar in Communicator but as I don't use that I wouldn't know for sure.

87220 2002-10-08 10:01:00 Selecting wrap text at xx characters is not the problem, it should copy and paste correctly regardless of the text wrap.

This seems to be a problem with Netscape when doing a copy and paste into a NS mail message, Sometimes it is OK other time the format is not retained.

I find if I copy from Internet Explorer and paste into NS mail it is OK and also it is OK when doing a copy from NS and paste into Outlook Express.
I usually have both browsers open as some site are better on one than the other so it is no problem
