Re: Trouble getting memo field printout exactly the same layout as the form

My client insists that the printed copy of text entered into a memo field have EXACTLY the same layout as it appears on the screen.
I found I had to eliminate the vertical scroll bar. Then I copied the memo field from the form to the report. I verified that the font and font size (MS Sans serif 8) were the same. However, the text shows differently. On the printed version, more text shows on the line than in the form.

Suggestions?

Is it possible you have CanGrow set in the report? If so, set that property to False.
