Auto carriage returns in Photoshop CS2 or CS4 text replacement variable data set?

Does anyone know how to make Photoshop CS2 or CS4 automate the process of a carriage return within a variable text replacement data set. Basically I have a list of names which are in a ms excel csv file, which I’ve defined in CS4 to make a data set this allows me to create multiple duplicates of the same picture but with the single text layer replaced with the variable from the csv file.

The problem I have is certain names in my csv file have more characters or words.
I would like it if Photoshop could automatically wrap the text over to the next line when the width of the text is greater than the image file width, with an automatic carriage return.

Does anyone know how I can do this?
 
Hello, and welcome to PsG!
Did you try making a text block rather than a text line? this should help you do what you want to acheive!
