    Check this function

    PROCEDURE SplitComments@1240060000(CommentText@1240060000 : Text);

       VAR

         SpaceLeft@1240060001 : Integer;

         Word@1240060002 : Text;

         CommentLine@1240060003 : Record 44;

         LineNo@1240060004 : Integer;

         TempWord@1240060005 : Text[50];

         Pos@1240060006 : Integer;

       BEGIN

         CommentLine.RESET;

         CommentLine.SETRANGE("Document Type","Document Type");

         CommentLine.SETRANGE("No.","No.");

         CommentLine.SETRANGE("Document Line No.","Document Line No.");

         IF CommentLine.FINDLAST THEN

           LineNo := CommentLine."Line No.";

         CommentLine.INIT;

         CommentLine."Document Type" := "Document Type";

         CommentLine."No." := "No.";

         CommentLine.Date := TODAY;

         CommentLine."Document Line No." := "Document Line No.";

         CommentLine.Code := COPYSTR(USERID,1,10);

         SpaceLeft := MAXSTRLEN(CommentLine.Comment);

         WHILE STRLEN(CommentText) > 0 DO BEGIN

            Pos := STRPOS(CommentText,' ');

            IF Pos > 50 THEN

              Pos := 50 - 1;

            IF Pos > 0 THEN BEGIN

              Word := COPYSTR(CommentText, 1, Pos);

              CommentText := COPYSTR(CommentText, Pos + 1);

            END ELSE BEGIN

              IF STRLEN(CommentText) >= 50 THEN BEGIN

                Word := COPYSTR(CommentText, 1, 50 - 1);

                Comment := COPYSTR(CommentText, 50);

              END ELSE BEGIN

                Word := CommentText;

                CLEAR(CommentText);

              END;

            END;

           IF (STRLEN(Word) > SpaceLeft) THEN BEGIN

             LineNo += 10000;

             CommentLine."Line No." := LineNo;

             CommentLine.INSERT(TRUE);

             CommentLine.Comment := '';

           END;

           TempWord := COPYSTR(Word, 1);

           CommentLine.VALIDATE(Comment,CommentLine.Comment + TempWord);

           SpaceLeft := 50 - STRLEN(CommentLine.Comment);

           IF STRLEN(CommentText) = 0 THEN BEGIN

             LineNo += 10000;

             CommentLine."Line No." := LineNo;

             CommentLine.INSERT(TRUE);

           END;

         END;

       END;

    I have added this in Sales Comment Sheet Page to copy a large text into multiple text lines on the sales comment line.
