I am having a problem, or don't understand, using the TEXT data
type with UNIFY's SQL/RPT programs. I am doing a publication
database that has abstracts stored as a TEXT data type.
SQL retrives the abstracts and delimits newlines within the abstract with a \.
RPT reconizes the \ as an end to the TEXT field and will
not print anything after it.

Did I miss the warning? Can't I use newlines in a TEXT field?
I am using UNIYF 4.0-870706.1
