Truncate after full word

[mgallot]

Crystal version 11.5 Anyone know of a way to display the values a user selected from the parameter list, but truncate at a full line but only after a full word?

Desired display (represents a full line)
Regions: Chicago, San Diego, New York, Washington

Current display
Regions: Chicago, San Diego, New York, Washingt

Thanks.

If you right-click, choose 'Format' and select 'Can Grow', a field will take an extra line if it needs it. To avoid fields overlapping, you can put the next data line in a separate section. Does that help?

Other methods are using LENGHT to check if something will fit on the basis of the number of characters. You can also change the font or font-size based on this.
