MS Access Forum / Database Design / December 2004Field Title - Force to 2 or 3 lines
How do I force a Field Title (in this case, it is the Caption) to show as 2 or 3 lines instead of just one LONG line? The data is only 2 or 3 digits long and the necessary caption is very long. Thanks for your help. Vera in Las Vegas You can't. Sorry.

Table datasheets have many limitations, this among them. John W. Vinson[MVP] Join the online Access Chats Tuesday 11am EDT - Thursday 3:30pm EDT http://community.compuserve.com/msdevapps Thanks for the feedback. At least, I don't feel so stupid about not being able to figure this out! Now, if I can only figure out how to keep my users from locking each other out of the database, I would really feel good! > How do I force a Field Title (in this case, it is the Caption) to show as 2 > or 3 lines instead of just one LONG line?
