>My problem is that reports seem to truncate at a word-level. If my data is "ABC DEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ", and my field is 26 chars wide, the report will output "ABC". If I set the "Stretch" option, then all the data will display, but on 2 lines. I want the output to be "ABC DEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXY" (all on 1 line - note that I'm accepting that the "Z" will be lost).

You may use LEFT(MyField,26) as report field expression.
