| this is a presentation issue and has to be done at front end application. formatting is not under scope of db and there's no need of handling it here------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL Server MVPhttp://visakhm.blogspot.com/ |

| yes, I am designing this using the wizard.Placed a table in the report to show the data...If the description field is too large then the description cell of the table control becomes to tall on the report which does not look good.Is there a wrap or similar kind of property for the case when the field has too much data so that it wraps the cell?Thanks |

| yep..in the cell properties in report you can increase the width of cell to accomodate for large values. also set auto growing property to true and minimise the border and padding values------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL Server MVPhttp://visakhm.blogspot.com/ |
