How do I get tables to wrap text?

[lccrews]

I would like to know if there is a way to set table properties to can grow. I have a table that I'd like to place on a portrait style report that is too wide. But when I shave down the width of the table, all of the data doesn't print out. I'd like the data to wrap text.

No. Build a report. Or perhaps in this case a report installed as a subreport.

I tried that. I made the table a subform and then placed the subform onto the report. Then I set the Can Grow property to Yes. It's still cutting off some of the wording. If this isn't what you meant please clarify.

What do you mean you 'made the table a subform'? Build a report that uses the table as its RecordSource. Then textboxes on the report have CanGrow property. Install this report as subreport on your main report. Or make it a standalone report.

I was completely off in understanding what you said at first. I had dragged the table to a form and created a subform. I then tried to drag that subform to the report. I understand what you mean now in that I need to use text boxes on a report that is bound to that table. I can then use that report as a subreport to my current report that has more tables to deal with. Thanks for the help June7. What's your name? I feel like you've helped me quite a bit.
