We just upgraded to version 8.0.0.8!
The SUBHEAD WRAPped FIELD no longer works in my report.
I've searched here and checked documentation.. No luck! Can someone please tell me what I need to do wrap a text field in a subheading in WFV8?
Thanks!
Marilyn

Thanks!!!
SQUEEZE works...with one caveat:
I also have a border around the text. 
       BORDER=LIGHT,

Now each line of the wrapped text has its own border. It used to be wrapped within one border around the outer edge.

Any ideas?

This may seem like a lot to read, but it's an excellent article on formatting in PDF

It is! I have copies of Part I and Part II on my PC. (Don't know how I missed SQUEEZE with PDF. Thanks for steering me!) Neither of these documents address the border issue.

SQUEEZE takes away the ability to control the borders. It wraps and puts borders on all cells, rather than just the outer border. Looks ugly!!

I discovered that in this case, [with borders] I needed, SWAP, SQUEEZE and WIDTH! Also, remove the justify=left to eliminate the gap on the left and butt the text right up to the border.
