John, 
we are guessing a bit here.

OK, you have a textarea which has a string in it.

Does the textarea control (i.e. as you see it on the form) have a number
of lines or does the textarea string have a "number of lines" (i.e. it
contains \n escape characters)?

Until we solve this bit I am afraid that guessing what the
jimmineycrickets this has to do with an Open command is just a touch too
hard.
