How do I initiallise a long string across more than one line in the editor?
(CVI 5.0.1).

I guess you are talking about setting an intial value for a string in the source editor. If so, you just close the quotes at the end of the line and reopen them on the next line. For example:

char message[100] = "We create innovative computer-based "
"products that improve everyday life. ";
