Access 2010
I have a field on a report whose recordsource is a memo field. I am trying to wrap the text so that the entire field shows on the report.
I have set "Can Grow" and "Can Shrink" to Yes in the text box properties. I have also set "Can Grow" and "Can Shrink" to Yes in the detail section properties.
Problem: The field is truncating, no matter what I do. Is there something else I can do so that the entire memo field shows on my report?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Wrapping text in text field on report
Memo fields truncate if any kind of formatting or grouping is applied to them - see Truncation of Memo fields.

Hans,
You've done it again!
See attached screenshot for the solution that did the trick.
This memo behavior is sure weird although I'm sure there must be a reason behind its weirdness.
Thanks.
