How to get a TextBlock to wrap text inside a DockPanel area

dockpanelsilverlighttextblockword-wrap

What do I have to do to get the inner TextBlock below to wrap its text without defining an absolute width?

I've tried Width=Auto, Stretch, TextWrapping, putting it in a StackPanel, nothing seems to work.

Have you tried changing the scrollbar visibility?

<ScrollViewer HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled" Padding="10"
            BorderThickness="0"
                Width="Auto"
                VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto">
