I am trying to create a tabular report where all the text boxes on a row grow to the same size. Right now I have the grow feature turned on for all the text boxes and some boxes stay their default size while a couple of them grow to fit in all of the text. Does anyone have any suggestions?

The Can Grow property only lets a text box increase its height if it is necessary to fit the contents, it will not make all text boxes in a horizontal row the same height.
Make sure that the text boxes do not overlap. Even the tiniest (vertical) overlap will disable the Can Grow property.

Thanks for the help Hans. Your response wasn't helpful, but I probable didn't explain my problem well enough. After a while of searching though the posts I found what I was looking for. http://www.wopr.com/cgi-bin/w3t/showthread...vc=1#Post145479
