Aligning Text
I have created a report with text in a text box. I would like the text to
Justify Left and right. (Distribute) I have used the Shift/Enter keys to start a new paragraph. The problem is that when I change the Text Align Properties to Distribute, it spaces the words of the last line in the paragraph. Example: "Thank you for all your assistance yesterday. M u c h A p p r e c i a t e d etc." Is there a way this can be overcome? Many thanks for any help |

Not sure if this is helpful (or even right) , but whenever I see that problem
there seems to be some invisible "character" missing from the end of the line and putting a line break (alt-enter) at the end of the text solves it. |

Thanks for your reply Fred.
Tried what you suggested, however, when you are typing in a text box created in the Report and press ALT-Enter, you are taken to the properties of the Text Box. Have I missed something?

Not meaning to butt in here but Fred may have meant CTRL-Enter.
