Additional blank lines in Operation "Comments" in Methods Maste

Hello Greg,
We had a similar problem with our sales order comments. I ignored the
obvious and spent too much time looking elsewhere. It was random and
inconsistent. As it turned out, one of our sales guys was actually entering
blank lines in the comment. Go figure!

Subject: [Vantage] Additional blank lines in Operation "Comments" in
Methods Master and Job Traveller


I have something pretty odd happening here that I can't figure out (we're on
5.110.114). We use the operation comments section in the methods master for
most of our job instructions like most of you I would guess. Recently,
without apparent pattern or reason, "some" of the comments sections now
have additional blank lines. It looks like each line got an extra carriage
return. It both displays on screen and prints what looks to be double
spaced.

The funny thing is it is not universal. Not all operations are affected and
not all parts. It does not appear to be related to when it was last
updated, copied to another BOM, unapproved and reapproved, solar winds, or
planetary forces. Any ideas?
