I have a report which has a large text field, so I'd like to put that on one line of the report and the rest of the output columns on a second line. Is there any way to do this? I've been searching the forums and documentation, but can't find anything similar. As it is now there is a lot of wasted space, plus it is hard to read.

TIA,
Theresa

Several ideas - How about FOLD-LINE or OVER syntax. Possibly put it in a subheading. You might also consider using WRAP or WIDTH style sheet syntax on the text field to control its width. Last, you might try breaking it up into separate fields using PARAG and GETTOK functions to manage the unwieldy length. Good luck.

Darin

Putting that column in a SUBHEAD worked. Thanks, Darin!
