Hi, Stephane Thanks for this - it is quite helpful. And don't worry about the translation - German is my first language.

So a lot of spaces ran over two lines. In this example you got a field 3.4, which carries over to field 3.5 in the next line. Here's the script that is being called when the user leaves field 3.4: ZZ4 = 11 // count of characters which will fit in 3.4 - // this I set using a lot of w and capital letters // trial and error, not very elegant ;-) test_4 = this.getField("3.4"); test_5 = this.getField("3.5"); text4 = test_4.value; laenge = text4.length; if (laenge > ZZ4) { leer = text4.indexOf(" "); // location of the first space between words, if any if ((leer > ZZ4) || (leer =="-1")) // Wenn kein Leerzeichen da ist ODER das erste Leerzeichen schon nicht mehr ins Feld passt, { // kommt der ganze Text ins zweite Feld test_5.value = event.value; test_4.value = ""; } else { for (i = 0; i < ZZ4; i++) { if (text4.charAt(i) == " ") { leer = i; } } test_5.value = (text4.substring((leer + 1), (laenge))); test_4.value = (text4.substring(0, (leer))); } } else // Der Text passt ins erste Feld, also lassen wir das zweite leer { test_5.value = ""; } Excuse me for not translating all the comments. Hope this is of interest.
