I'm printing a Directory as a Report. For some data records I need quite long text which I would prefer to have formatted (i.e. not just as a memo field). I can link a Word document as an OLE field and print it: but can I make this dynamically variable in size - i.e expanding when the Word doc is long and disappearing when it is absent?

Report with long text - using OLE Word document

The closest I can get is to put the Docs in a subreport actual size (size mode left at Clip). One the main form make the subs short. If the are tall on the sub they will grow on the main and vice versa.
Not sure how you are controlling what doc to show. I was testing with unbound object frame.
