TextBox CanGrow/CanShrink

[jfp]

exactly where in the sequence of events for a report can i determine the
height of a textbox in the report header? The textbox can grow or
shrink. In the ReportHeader Format event i set its contents; when i
view the report it has correctly changed height; but when i refer to the
height in the Format event i do not get the modified value.

Access calculates the Height of a Can Grow/Shrink control or
section after the Format event. It is available in the
Print event.

Unfortunately, the Print event is too late to do much about
it. If you'll post your problem, someone might be able to
suggest a way to deal with it.
