Fields do not shrink on the report.

Hi,

I have a problem where one text box has a paragraph of text in it and
for some reason when the report is ran the first sentence in that box
stays on page 1 and the rest goes to page 2 leave a huge chunk of
whitespace on page1 unused.

I have made sure that all the text fields are touching each others
boundary so that they would shrink properly and Can Grow/Can Shrink
properties are set.

Thanks

Click on the band the offending text box is in to pull up the property
sheet. Is it set to Grow also? What about KeepTogether? You might
want to play with the KeepTogether property also.
