How to justify a label?

[Rui Patinha]

Hello,

I have a label in a report that is filled up with text from a query.

The problem is that I need to justify the alignment, but not as it does by
default... let me try to clear this...

if I get a 5 line text from the query, all the lines have the label width,
even if the last line just have 1 word! I tryed to put spaces after the
text, but it doesn't do the trick. If I put underscores and spaces
alternatively, it works, but looks awful!!!

I just want the same formating ms word have for justified text.

How can i do this?

thanks,
Rui Patinha

See if this will help. It works with textboxes, not labels, but may be able to get you
started or you may be able to replace your label with a text box. A little formatting on
the box and you should be able to make it look like a label.
