Syntax
CALL "utmmoin.wbb",cgitext$,blocked$,block
Description
Business BASIC applications typically store variable length text fields in multiple records, blocked to a certain size. Often, the maintenance of these blocks is performed one line at a time within the Business BASIC application itself. This routine simplifies the conversion of free form text entry in an HTML form into a format suitable for storage using blocking techniques.
