I would like, with code, to set the width of a text box
(or label) to "best fit", based on its value (or
caption). Like the effect you would get by double
clicking the handle in design mode. Any suggestions on
how to do this?

Thank you, Stuart

TextHeightWidth.zip is a replacement for the Report object's TextWidth
and TextHeight methods. It is multiline aware and can work in both
Report and Form views. Includes a sample report to show you how to
autosize individual controls with different formatting on the same line
to simulate RTF style text.

Thanks very much for this. I am surprised at how complex
it is, but that's MS Access....
