I apologize if this has been answered before but am on a
deadline and looking for advice.

Is it possible to create a report where the height of a
text display box will auto expand depending on the length
of the string in that field.

For example, having a table with fixed column widths
where up to 100 chars will fit. If the field value has a
length of 200 chars, can the textbox be made to expand
vertically and have the text wrap?

Thanks in advance.

Set the text box's CanGrow property to Yes.
