report form, trim field instead of wrap

J

Jennifer

I need my fields on my reorts to trim or truncate rather
than wrap to the next line? Any ideas on how to do this?
Never thought I'd miss DOS lol

Is the Can Grow property of the control set to Yes? If so, try setting it to
No. It will still wrap, but the control shouldn't grow to allow you to see
it. If that doesn't work, make the control a calculated control using the
left function and specify the limit of the number of characters that you
want.

Example:
=Left([FieldName], 10)
