I have a report that brings in data using a query. The query data shows all of the text in the field as it should, but the text field on the form doesn’t. I turned on “can grow” for the field on the report but it still doesn’t show all text. What are some reasons why th3 “can grow” wouldn’t work??

Thanks for the reply Eugene
It looks like I was mistaken, and the data source is the problem. I thought the query was bringing in the full text but it looks like it is cutting off.
The data is actually linked to a SharePoint List and the data field in the SharePoint list is even cut off!! It's strange though, the field in the SharePoint List is set up as "Multiple Lines of Text" which should handle the amount of characters... so not sure why its getting cut off there. That's the next thing I'll need to look into.

Just for reference, You need can grow/can shrink on the section header in addition to the control AND if there is any overlap of controls, the grow/shrink doesn't work.
