subject: 1.79 file listing problem

I do not seem to know how to fix this, so I figured I would ask.  Maybe 
someone can tell me what to do.
In my files database, I have many files that have file descriptions that may 
be like, 8 lines long.  When someone in Opus does a file titles command, a 
typical 8 line entry might look like this:
FILENAME.ZIP   123445  01-01-97  -----------------------------------------
                                 ---------------------------------------
                                 ----------------------------------------
                                 ----------------------------------------
                                 -these are description lines------------
                                 -------------------------------------------
                                 ----------------------------------------
                                 ---------------------------------------- 
With Opus 1.79, after running con2, when I go into Opus and list the same
file, I get this:
FILENAME.ZIP   123445  01-01-97  -----------------------------------------
                                 ---------------------------------------
                                 ----------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
What can I do about this?  I like the way 1.73 displayed these long file 
descriptions.  I don't think the bottom example is *supposed* to be how they 
are displayed.  What can I do about this?
Also, how do I turn on file tagging as a feature, in 1.79?  (Assuming that is 
a feature...)
