Is there a way of setting a limit to the quantity of characters or rows of text displayed in a report field?
I want to allow fields to grow down if more than one row, but set a limit to a maximum of five rows.
Otherwise the gantt chart I have at the bottom of the page is truncated.
Thank you in advance.

Hello David,
can you post here a pic so I can see your question clearly?
thanks,
Alex
If you use a RichText control instead of a label, you can set it to CanGrow = false and then set the exact size of the container. It will not go beyond that size.

Can one of the cells of a table control be configured in this way?
Or would I have to drop a RTF control inside a table cell for this to work?
Thank you in advance.

That I am not sure about. When you use a table each field is a cell of table. You don’t seem to have a choice of label vs memo here. I would play around with the CanGrow, Multipline, and Lines properties in the PropertyGrid.
