display only a part of the text on the line and move the remaining part to the next line using this syntax

text(20)

text+20(20)

This displays only 20 characters of ur text in the first line n remaining 20 in next line..

Does this solve ur problem??Pl acknowledge if it does.

you can do like this.

do the following in program lines

check the length of the field.

if it is greater than length (suppose 24) then

split the field into two chars and basing upon this you print this data in 2 text elements.

else.

print in single text element.

hope this logic will help u. reward points if u understand

Hi,

If you have selected the pattern carefully,I am sure it won't overlap and the data will come fully.

If you are in Enterprise version,you can see the Pattern option in Table->Table.In that select pattern is the first icon.

If you are on 4.6,then I think you have to use Table painter in Table.

Kindly reward points by clicking the star on the left of reply,if it helps.
