Default Can Grow Up

I have a filed in a table defined as comments (MEMO Field) That field is in
a report, and "Can Grow" is set to yes, but the field will not grow in the
report to accomadate the comments. Is there another setting in Access07 to
make this field grow when there is more comments that the current field
soze?

Thanks

Did you also set the section's, i.e. Detail Section, CanGrow property
to Yes?

Are there fields either to the right or the left of your field? If there
are, your field will not grow.

I think Steve meant to add if your control on the report has its top below
controls to the right or left of it then the control will not grow.

I could be wrong about that but I think that is the behavior.
