Hello!

I need some help with scrolling field...

So, I have this for example. I am going to use the table property to divide the field into 3 columns.
As you can see, the texts are far too long to fit one column, so it exceeds up to somewhere in the middle.


Here, I placed vertical grids already, to put divisions in between those 3 columns.


So, my problem is, the texts on the first column were not wrapped. They're just cut instead...what can I possibly do in order for the entire text to be seen?.... like this.


Please help!


Thanks,
Genie

I think it is impossible to wrap text in a table field. Unlike in Excel, which can do this

I am not sure what you can do. Maybe a datagrid has this capability?

Anyone know?

Check out the DataGrid user guide and the tutorials. It looks like you have complete control over the contents of each row, including graphics and images, never mind multi-line text. I have used datagrids, but am no expert. But with a little fiddling, these objects are very powerful and flexible.

Yeah Craig...decided to just use the datagrid

Thanks!
