Default MoveLayout and line feed question

I have a report where several text items are drawn on one line, and to
prevent a line feed, Me.MoveLayout = False is used.
Sometimes these text items have more text, and CanGrow is set to true so
they will expand down (the width is calculated for a time line). The detail
section also has CanGrow set to true.
However the detail lines are always the same height and subsequent lines
write over text items made longer by CanGrow.

Debug.Print Me.txtName.Value & " --- " & Me.txtName.Height
shows all txtName fields to be the same height, even when they have grown.

How can I get the detail line to expand so that the text items don't
overlap?
