    i have created a simple application in access2k that allows me to keep track of the demands that several customers put upon me. very unfortunately, my notes section for several of our customers appears to extend beyond the limits of the textbox control on the report that i created. i say this because everything prints fine for the customers with only a few lines of notes, those with extensive notes don't print anything at all. the textbox control on the report points to a memo field on a linked table (the table resides in another access database on the server). is there a way of extending the basic textbox control to handle all of the memo field or is there a more advanced control that won't limit the number of characters that i need?

    Have you tried setting the CanGrow property to True?

    i'm going to have to apologize. it seems when a report would spill over onto a second page, it was leaving the first page blank. i did not realize this however, because i was not bright enough to look more closely at the report. i pretty much just made an adjustment on my header and everything is fine. sorry about that. you were probably looking for something more involved and quite a bit more sinister than an unobservant semi-newbie (though with this mistake, i may demote myself back to newbie).
