Had to look this one up because I am not familiar with embedded new lines --- but I am now! However, question in the spoiler on truncated lines...

Question - I had to add in a select tool before the RegEx that lengthens Field 1 to 254, otherwise I get an error that it is truncated in the RegEx process. However, this doesn't happen when I run the solution. Why? I don't see the difference.
