[#2219035]

Hi all, I've had a quick look in MS help but I'm busy and knew this place would be much more helpful and faster.

I've inherited a standard template that is currently in use with our end-users and it has a number of text boxes on it, however they don't wrap the text properly, it doesn't automatically return to the next line and just makes the text box really wide. Writing the text in Notepad or Word helps a little bit in that it transfers the return, but it still makes the text box wider if there's a mismatch in font sizes.

There's nothing obvious in the properties of the text box but was wondering if anyone could help?

Thanks

In my version 2008 for Mac, there is a fixed column width option under the table menu.

Table -> Autofit and Distribute -> Fixed Column Width

I'll try that, but its a field within a form(?) so they all appear to be inter-dependent
