Is it possible to justify the text within an Access 2000 label? It seems I can left, right and center the text - but not justify.
Appreciate any help.

I'm a little confused as to exactly what you mean by "justify"; Right, Left or Center is "justifying" where I come from. Explain a little more clearly please>

As in MS WORD, Align Left, Align Right, Centre or Justify. Justify, i.e. space words in a line so the line aligns both left and right.

For some bizarre reason this MS product doesn't have an icon on the formatting toolbar to do this . You have to select the label, go to the Properties box, then select "Distribute".

Sorry, second line of last post should habe been
"You have to select the label, go to the Properties box, then to "Text Align" then select "Distribute". "It's got to be the going,

Thanx Missinglinq, but it doesn't quite work. If you have say 3.5 lines in a label box, selecting Distribute will justify all lines including the fourth half line which will become stretched out of proportion.
