Memo field might help. You could use memlines() to calculate the
number of lines.
I have to assemble the contents of the field object in the field object
itself, as the report is rendered. (My reporting system creates a cursor
suitable for output in a variety of formats, for a variety of purposes, not
just a VFP .frx report. As such, it needs to have discrete fields for each
element of a mailing address. I would have to entirely rewrite the logic of
the report system to get a pre-assembled mailing address into a memo field
in a cursor. It's not worth the time and effort to do that.)
But thanks. You're the only person who has responded at all.
