That's a cool trick -- Thanks! It worked perfectly. I started looking at the source for Alert.as and AlertForm.as. It looks like they have a bunch of code in there to resize the text, but for some reason it's not working right. Do you know if there is a way to set breakpoints inside of the framework actionscript classes?

Write a module that would pop up like the alert (maybe a panel since that is the parent of an alert control) and if you do use the panel, stick a text area or something of that nature that has native wordwrap to it.
