Jorge,

Nope, you're not the only one. I'm currently working on a Questionnaire based system, where I need to have questions and answers on a form as well as print them. So I'm using the field's caption to store the whole question, so I can just drag and drop them on the form, and of course to the report form as well, where we all know this feature doesn't work.

I'm currently reviewing Bull's Eye Reports which it's pretty good, since it supports this feature and many others; now the problem I'm having is that the product doesn't have a WordWrapping property on its property box, which makes my problem not much better.

Overall, I recommend Bull's Eye for most of it features; I spoke to one of the developers of the product and he said that Microsoft blah blah blah about the support of the technique and so on, but maybe they can use an extra push from other people in need...
