No wrap fields?

Hello there..

Is there any way to make fields grow in width, and not to wrap the text?

As it is now, you have to specify a width that will suite the data in the field. That takes some time that should be easy to automate?

//P?r

No, textboxes are allowed to expand or contract automatically only in the vertical direction (height), not horizontal (width) by using CanGrow and CanShrink property respectively.

It may be because the width of the report will be affected if width of one or more fields in it is changed. This will lead to extra pages when rendered in some formats where the extra pages will have the spilled over data from the previous page. But extra pages caused due to increase in the height of the fields is acceptable and viewable from the users point of view.
