Issue with import.pl & VERY large Description fields
I'm trying to import some very large text Description fields. I've searched the archives but wasn't able to find any suitable solution.

The Description field on the import file can contain 1-2 pages of text. (This causes a wordwrap to the next line in the import text file) It seems that import.pl is set to a maximum width as when I truncate the excessive part of the Description field I am then able to import.

Validate.def and Links.def are set to allow this large amount of text. It just seems to be the import.pl which cannot accept a Description filed beyond a certain width.

Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated!
