Hi Guys,

Have a report with a Memo Field. The data is gonna be dispalyed in continous view (i.e row after row of available data)

The problem is that sometimes the data in the memo field covers a numver of lines, and at other times it is just a single lines woth of data. Because of this I can not set the memo fields size during the design phase.

I would like to be able to make the memo shrink or grow to accomodate the data it will be required to display.

Any suggestions pls??

[cheers]
