I have a text box that is 3cm from the left hand side of the report.

I set it to can grow because the data that will populate it will be multiple lines long.

I need the text to stay 3cm from the left hand side of the report.

When I merge it to Word 2007 the first line stays 3cm from the left hand side of the report, the rest of the text starts from the left hand side of the report.

What property do I need to change to keep all the text in the textbox 3cm from the left hand side of the report?
 
Thanks

I have tried those and the text still 'spills' over back to the report edge rather than every line being 3cm from the left hand edge of the report.

Irritatingly, this issue does not occur in Word 2003, it is just versions after that where it decides to do its own thing?!!
