White Space - Control size

[ipr1]

Hi - In the detail section of my report, I have two controls ("Authority" and "Person/Title"). Both controls are set to can grow/can shrink and the detail section is also set the same way (can shrink/can grow).

I want both controls to be side-by-side but since the "authority" control is much longer than the "person/title" control, I am showing the authority control and one name beside it and then a space below the first name before I reach the second and subsequent names of people who have that same authority.

From what I have read in a troubleshooting access bokk ("the height of a large control can prevent other controls in the same section from shrinking because the section shrinks line by line ...). I know I should accept that statement and walk away from this issue but does anyone have a solution?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Have you considered placing the "Person/Title" data in a sub-report? I not sur it would work, but it'd be worth a shot...

Thanks - yes I tried that - same result.

I do appreciate the suggestion, however.
