Hi Experts,
Is there any way to automatically grow the content of dynamic text
field in crystal report. I will give you an example this way.I have values to display in crystal report as (which we fetch dynamically fromt the database)
Employee_ID, Employee_name, Employee_addressNow, the Employee_ID, Employee_name would be ok. But for
Employee_address the value can be anything from the database, i.e. it
can be lengthy also(like with 80 charectors also). That is it will come in next row and
overlap the below the row column ('address') value.Now, is there any way(or formula), when one dynamic text field grows
like address, then previous two Employee_ID and Employee_address
should grow automatically and for next row the data should not overlap
also.Please give ideas.
Thanks in advance.

, then each field will expand (vertically) as necessary to accommodate the data. If the field does NOT need to expand, it won't. Moreover, if the three fields are arranged side-by-side in the samedetails
section, there will be no overlap--either horizontally or vertically.If you are trying to always bottom-align the three fields, regards of the vertical size of any of the fields (the address field in your example seems to be the issue), then you have a different problem:
