In my label file, is there a way to insert a CRLF in field 3 of an MVB label?

Code: 
...
;
001,0,Group Heading
001,1,MVB Line 1,MVB Line 2,Pop-up Line 1<CRLF>Pop-up Line 2?
...

Use "\n", backslash-n. Here's an example. The content is duplicated as comments for label file readability; it's not required and it has no function on VCDS.

Code: 
005,0,Air Recirculation Status and Air Quality Sensor (G238) Status
005,1,Recirculation,Requested,0 = Recirculation NOT requested\n10 = Recirculation requested by Air Quality Sensor (G238)\n11 = Recirculation requested by G238 but rejected (Automatic Recirculation inactive)\n12 = Recirculation requested by G238 but rejected (compressor OFF)\n13 = Recirculation requested by G238 but rejected (defrost active)\n20 = Manual Recirculation active\n25 = Recirculation active (vehicle startup or 30 second additional recirc time to dampen on/off change cycling)\n30 = Recirculation active (wiper/headlamp washer active)\n40 = Recirculation active (high ambient temperature)\n50 = Recirculation active (A/C inactive/blower speed 0)\n60 = Partial Recirculation active
;   0 = Recirculation NOT requested
;  10 = Recirculation requested by Air Quality Sensor (G238)
;  11 = Recirculation requested by G238 but rejected (Automatic Recirculation inactive)
;  12 = Recirculation requested by G238 but rejected (compressor OFF)
;  13 = Recirculation requested by G238 but rejected (defrost active)
;  20 = Manual Recirculation active
;  25 = Recirculation active (vehicle startup or 30 second additional recirc time to dampen on/off change cycling)
;  30 = Recirculation active (wiper/headlamp washer active)
;  40 = Recirculation active (high ambient temperature)
;  50 = Recirculation active (A/C inactive/blower speed 0)
;  60 = Partial Recirculation active
005,2,Air Quality,Sensor (G238),0 = Missing Signal from Air Quality Sensor (G238)\n1 = Recirculation requested: Low Increase in oxidisable Gases \n2 = Recirculation requested: High Increase in oxidisable Gases\n3 = Recirculation requested: Low Increase in reducible Gases\n4 = Recirculation requested: High Increase in reducible Gases\n5 = Recirculation NOT requested (Fresh Air Mode/No Pollution recognised)\n7 = Recirculation NOT requested (Fresh Air Mode/No Pollution recognised)\n254 = No Signal from Air Quality Sensor (G238) sensor not yet ready / engine start-up\n255 = No Signal from Air Quality Sensor (G238) engine shut down
;   0 = Missing Signal from Air Quality Sensor (G238) unknown
;   1 = Recirculation requested: Low Increase in oxidisable Gases
;   2 = Recirculation requested: High Increase in oxidisable Gases 
;   3 = Recirculation requested: Low Increase in reducible Gases
;   4 = Recirculation requested: High Increase in reducible Gases
;   5 = Recirculation NOT requested (Fresh Air Mode/No Pollution recognised)
;   7 = Recirculation NOT requested (Fresh Air Mode/No Pollution recognised)
; 254 = No Signal from Air Quality Sensor (G238) sensor not yet ready / engine start-up
; 255 = No Signal from Air Quality Sensor (G238) engine shut down
005,3,Heated Windshield,,Display Range: ON/OFF\nWithout respect to whether heated windshield is equipped on vehicle
005,4,Refrigerant Loss,Shutoff Count,Number of compressor shut-off procedures due to refrigerant loss

Thanks Jason. Aptly enough, it's a label file for an HVAC module too. In your example above, it goes way over the 80 character limit. I'm presuming now that it is 80 characters per line?

Off to work now, I'll do some more experimenting when I get back home.

VCDS never seemed to stop me at 80 characters. It's the forum force-wrapping it, not me... it's on a single line in the label file.

Feel free to crib from 3D0-907-040.lbl. That's one I wrote for the Phaeton, and it's where the above example was taken from.

I think the limit was 255 at one time, but might have been increased.

Current limit is ~1024 (or somewhere around that number) characters I believe. I rarely run into this but if you end up displaying that much info, the screen quickly becomes your limit anyway... ;)

2,1,123456789012345,ABCDEFGHIJKLM,This is the Third Field which is displayed in a balloon
2,2,Max field leng., is 13-17 chars,except for the third field that can be 80 chars long.
2,3,Depends on size, of characters
2,4,ABCDEFGHIJKLM,abcdefghijklmnopq

I suppose that was written a long time ago... :)
