Continuing text to another field after it's full

Post by wolfkillshepard » Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:48 pm

I am making an iPhone app in which there is functionality that copies text from a field where a user pasted it in and then later pulls that text and puts it into different fields to be printed as a PDF page.

That information is kind of irrelevant but my real question is

"How can I have text that is put into a field with, lets say a character limit of 240, and then have the rest of the text be put into another field dynamically?"

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
