access thread: text wrap and resizable forms/labels/textboxes.
Hello,
I have a problem in that I have a resizable form. There is a box with
some labels in on the left hand side that link when clicked on. For
example, the labels may be displayed as below when the form opens (note
the wrapping):
========================================================
Click here
to add a
new item.
Click here
to delete
an old item.
========================================================
Now, when the form is resized so that it is wider, the space containing
these labels gets wider and the labels do not need to wrap as much. As a
result, I am getting something similar to below (note the huge gap between
the labels):
========================================================
Click here to add a new item.
Click here to delete an old item.
========================================================
When what I really want is for the second label to move up to just beneath
the first label as below (note the normal gap between the labels):
========================================================
Click here to add a new item.
Click here to delete an old item.
=========================================================
Does anybody know a way of doing this? Is there a way of getting the
label to fit the caption heightwise. I would then be able to calculate
the top of the second label from there.
If there is another way of doing this in access, using say textboxes, then
I am willing to give it a go.
Any help in this matter would be very much appreciated,
Kind regards, Phillip.
