Dynamic field height?

edited April 2003 in General
Hi,

I am new to Report Builder and am trying to set up a dbText field so that it
will wrap to the next line if necessary, but I want the field to normally
take up only one line if the text will fit on that line. I have been
experimenting with autosize, wordwrap and dynamic sizing for the detail band
but it always seems to come up with a blank data field if it will not fit on
one line, or my report is essentially double spaced with only a few of the
records needing the two lines for that one field.

Is there a way to tell it to only stretch the field (and therefore the row
height) if needed, but to normally leave it at the regular height?

Thanks,
Carolyn

    Did you try using a TppDBMemo inplace of a TppDBText? This may solve teh
    problem.
