Max length is upto 132 char only.So what you can do either,just Create two text symbols and show tham one after another.It will treated as continue text.

define another text symbol. You cannot extend the text symbol.

if you want to bigger text on selection screen, you can use selection-screen comment. if you need it somewhere else, create a variable

Max length is 132. If you need longer than this, add one more text symbol and use both.

First define a field with the length you want to display the output.

Write the text you want to display in two text symbols and concatenate these two fields into the field you defined.
