I have a field on a label. A UDF returns a name "GEORGIANNA
HEWWIT-CRONKIDE". The field does not have enough room for the whole name
so I get "GEORGIANNA". I made the field two lines and it didn't wrap. I
then tried "Stretch with overflow" and it still did not produce the
"HEWWIT-CRONKIDE" on the second line. What am I missing. I seem to do
this all the time.
I don't have VFP9 in front of me, but if you check the properties for that
field, there should be an option on what to do when a field is too long.
(If it's not 9, not sure. Make it wider so the last name fits across?)
Garrett, there's Trim mode but I have never used it. Every time I use
stretch on overflow or make the field tall enough it always wraps.
Trim mode has Default, Trim to nearest character, Trim to nearest word,
Trim to nearest character, append ellipsis, etc. Nothing about wrapping.
