Christian,
SET MEMOWIDTH influenced TEXT but if you look at SET MEMOWIDTH's Help you will see it is not mentioned. In TEXT..ENDTEXT as well. it looks like you need to cut it in peases by your own.

>>>What happens is, that if the memo field is very large, the text does not brake by column 50 as I expected to. SET MEMOWIDTH does not influence the line brake.

>>Add CHR(13)+CHR(10) at the end of the line and see if you get your breaks.
