I am attempting to export a group of subtasks into a CSV file.  The description field is not exporting the full description.  Is there a limit to what can be exported?  How can I get the entire field exported into the CSV file?  Is there a setting somewhere that needs to be adjusted?

@Teresa Demmer What application are you using to open the CSV file?  I know that some applications will truncate fields because they only support so many characters.  If you look at the CSV file in notepad or a similar application is the description still truncated?

Brant...I figured out that the first row of text was underlined and the export didn't like that.  Once I took that formatting out, it worked.

@Teresa Demmer makes sense CSV files should not have any formatting.
