Bruce,

You shouldn't have to compromise nor muck with the width of the button(s).

For your viewing pleasure, take a look at the sample ...

http://www.razzak.com/tips/Multi_Line_Button_Captions.jpg

Form Name: Multi_Line_Buttons_Captions

Involved Buttons:
. Push Button
. Bit Button
. Speed Button
. Drop-Down Menu Button

-- On Before Start EEP
    SET VAR vCaption TEXT = ('Line 1'+(CHAR(013))+(CHAR(013))+'Line 2')
    RETURN

-- On After Start EEP
    PROPERTY Push_Button CAPTION .vCaption
    PROPERTY Bit_Button CAPTION .vCaption
    PROPERTY Speed_Button CAPTION .vCaption
    PROPERTY Drop_Down_Menu_Button CAPTION .vCaption
    RETURN

That's all there is to it!

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
