[AccessD] Resize Rectangle on Report

It is in the OnFormat of the section.
Doesn't seem to work.
I calculated the height the rectangle should be when the text box grows.
I put that number to equal the height.  Still doesn't work.
I even tried to change the height if the length of text in the text box was greater than the width.  Still didn't work.

I'm going to try Rocky's suggest now.

Which event are you doing this in? If it's in the OnFormat of the section
containing the controls it *ought* to work!

Lembit,
I'm trying to change the height of the rectangle because I have several of
these in a row on the report. I have tried Me!myRectangle.Height =
Me!myTextBox.height + WhatEver The rectangle sizes to the first record but
not the rest. Thanks, Jim

Jim,
I have not done this for a long time, but I would set the rectangles width
to the textbox width plus something. you will have to find in which event to
do this, but the code would be something like me.myRectangle.width =
me.myTextbox.width + whatever HTH

How do I resize a rectangle on a report?
A2K
I have a label and a text box inside a rectangle located in a group header.
The text box is below the label and the can grow event is set to Yes.
Occasionally the text box grows but I can't seem to make the rectangle grow
with it.

How can I make it grow?

Thanks,

Jim
