Subject says it all really. I have a textbox in a report within our application - it's set to Can Grow and Can Shrink because the users of our application have to be able to enter in their own text.

Looking at a preview of the report with some sample text in this text box, I've just noticed that whereever an apostrophe comes up within a word at the end of a line, the text is separated rather than starting the word on a new line. For example, blah blah blah blah blah blah'
s blah blah blah blah blah. Hope that gives you an idea.

Anyone know why this is happening and what I can do to stop it?

Thanks.

 
I should add that the text in the textbox is coming from a memo field in a table.
