I have formual field called child_allergy in conditionaly place the DB field in the formual field or insert another value if a condition is not meet.
WhilePrintingRecords;
if isNull({ChildUserDefined.Allergy}) or
Trim({ChildUserDefined.Allergy}) ="" then "None On File "
else {ChildUserDefined.Allergy};

I only have the first line printing. The db field is 200 characters long.

 
Hi,

I only have the first line printing. The db field is 200 characters long.


Do you mean that the entire contents of that field are not showing? If so, in designer, right-click that field and in the format options, check 'can grow' - set the # of lines to 0 to alow as many as needed.

Or if you don't want the extra, do something like Left({ChildUserDefined.Allergy}, 40)
