Thank you for your suggestion. I am hesitant to scrub the chr(10) as it might
change user's view of the data. The 'set wrap on' seemed to work ok except it
produces an extra blank line - a side effect of setting wrap on?. Any
suggestions on overcoming this extra blank line?

Can't you apply a replace(colname, chr(10), chr(32)) to your varchar2
columns ?
It should (normally) fix the issue.
