Hi!

I seems do not understand correctly what you want.

I understood that columns in your grid are of fixed width.

But I'm talking about the ROW height, not about the columns.

In the VFP grid row height is not fixed, you can change it (and users can change it too). However, row height is the same for all rows in the grid. All that you can do is to expand the row height of the grid to 3 lines of text to fit edit box lines and make the wrap.

The grid row height is not auto-expanded to display information.

Recently there was the same thread at the MS newsgroups. There was a search for ActiveX control that will be able to show rows in the grid with different height and adjust height of the rows accordingly to the size of the text in the row. From what I understood, no ActiveX was found, so I suggested to use the Excel chart for such functionality. This might be quite complex, so think first if you can spend a lot of time and effort to try to achieve this goal - think if it is really worth to do this. Probably users can live without this feature. For example, when user move mouse over the edit box, a complete text is displayed. Tis is much more easy to implement than just trying to reach something really complex.

Take care.

>>If you meant you need less than 3 lines for text to display more lines in grid... For what then you need word wrapping?
>>
>>So I suggest you need more than 3 lines - it is ok. Make RowHeight for grid as large as you want, to display as much text as you need. I meant that you cannot display wordwrapped text inside of the edit box when you have grid row height less than 3 lines of text.

>>Note also that edit box have a scrollbar.

>>BTW, you CAN use a label, but this is a bit tricky and require some coding, as well as the grid refreshing will be much slower. Let me know if you really need it or solution with EditBox is not good for you. Remember that you can change EditBox properties so it will look as a label too, but it is even scrollable ;)
