    The text probably exceeds the limits (256 characters I believe)
    Hope that helps.

    Yes there is more than 256 characters however the import works on one machine and all the text is imported and printed.

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.
