flow text

[Bill]

I have a report in which I'd like to insert a
sometimes long text string, i.e., a paragraph
that I've compiled in code with the insertion
of data that comes from a table. What's the
preferable way to accomplish that? Is there
a text "wrap" feature for text boxes? Maybe
an unbound object frame? Punt!?

The text will automatically word-wrap in the text box.

Presumably you have already included the paragraph breaks (e.g. press
Ctrl+Enter when entering the data.)

You probably want to set the CanGrow property to yes for this text box.

I keep forgetting the Ctrl+Enter instead of just Enter.
Thanks,
Bill
