Changing font-size on report through code

[Meltdown]

Hi all,

I'm having a problem on a complex report where the page is breaking in an inappropriate place. I've tried all the options 'can grow/shrink', 'keep together' etc and the problem is still occuring.

I was thinking of giving the user an option to change the font-size of the text on the report, and see if that helps with the layout.

Has anyone come accross any code sample that allows a user to change the font-size of the text on a report 'on the fly'?

Regards

Changing the font size won't resolve the issue its the size of the textboxes that do that. If you have a textbox on a report or on a form the textbox will not shrink/grow according to the font size. That is of course if it is not a multi line txtbox. Where about on your report is the page breaking?

Hi David,

It won't be possible for me to give you an explanation that makes any sense, as to where the page is breaking. It's a master-report with three embedded sub-reports with many variables.

I've tested my theory by manually altering the font-size on a few reports and it does help as the Details section of each sub is set to grow/shrink, and this in turn affects the positioning of the other elements and subs.
