>I still am not getting across what I want. I have no problem making a 250 char field for an email, but what should I put on a printed report where the email must appear completely readable? If I have to allow for 250 char on the page, then it wastes space or I use a very small font or I have to do something special to make it readable. If in fact, eamil user names never exceed 60 characters, then I wasted time doing this.

As Edgar suggested, use the "stretch with overflow" option - and if possible, make the report field wide enough, so this option is used only exceptionally.

Hilmar.
