Memo Fields in report footers

[TreeGuy]

Does anyone know the limitiations of word wrapping when a memo field is embedded into a text box on a report footer. <br>
If you have a long text string with no CR/LF then Crystal seems to loose some of the text in wrapping to the next line. I know the text is there in the access database as a memo field. If I strategiclly place a CR within the text Crystal does not loose the text. It seems to me that maybe Crystal only retrieves x number of characters to wrap and ignores anything after that point on that line.<br>
Crystal tech support was no real help and doesn't seem to know. They suggested that the problem was the printer driver. I tried different drivers but with no change.

I have found both page footers and report footers to behave differently than group footers when it comes to printing multiline text. A work around might be to place your memo field in a group footer, and if you want this to print only at the end of the report (ie in a simulated report footer) then format the text to suppress except on the last record of the report (use the NextIsNull() function to determine whether you are on the last record). A kludge, but it might let you get on to other things... <p>Malcolm Wynden<br><a href=mailto:wynden@island.dot.net>wynden@island.dot.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
