Re: Forms4.5 -- Scrolling Text Items

An easy solution would be to create your canvas and column on the form wide enough to display all 400 characters. The user could scroll the canvas/window to see the entire contents of all 10 records together.

A messier solution would be to break the 400 characters up into smaller columns (using the substr function) and the user could tab across from one item to the next.

Hope this helps.
