Word Wrap

rbuser

Delphi 2005, RB version 6.03

When I set word wrap on regular dbtext field, the text will not wrap.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

John

Hi John,

Note that the DBText component is not a stretchable one. This means that
you will need to manually vertically size the control if you would like to
see the word wrapping in a DBText. If you would like a data aware component
to stretch vertically, try using the DBMemo component with its Stretch
property set to True. If you would like to still use the DBText component,
be sure the AutoSize property is set to False.

Nico,

Thanks very much taking the time to answer this for me.

Yes, I came to the conclusion that I would have to use a DBmemo after a
bit of experimentation.

Thanks again!
