I've been reading about Cangrow, there are a million threads out there, but none seem to apply to my issue. I have a report, with a text box in the detail section, set to CanGrow Yes.

The text box is growing as needed on about 1/3 of work stations, and fails on the other 2/3.

What makes this so annoying is the text box "Grows", but just not enough to display all the text. I am using Access 2013, my partner is using Access 2016, all workstations are running Windows 10. It works on both my machine, and my partners (2013 & 2016), but other users, most on 2016, experience the problem.

Things I've tried:
Adding a Carriage/Linefeed to the offending data (No Help)
Making the text box huge, and setting the CanShrink to it, and the detail section which had a very strange result. On the machines that have this problem, it shrinks the text box down to the point that it still does not display all the text.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
