basically, I want some of my column headings to be two lines in height. Problem is, the column headings dont align exactly on the same base line.
 
in the PH section of the report, I have a text object which is used as a column heading.
 
The text object is two lines in height and I use a formula which returns a string containing a "carriage return" to get a two line column heading.
 
"% " + {@yy0} + chr(13) + "Business"
 
How can I get all my column headings to align vertically on the same base line?
 
thanks,
 
-Steve

Aligning multi-line text boxes is tough. I would size them to be their max height and then align all the boxes to each other. If you need to, make the single line boxes multiline as well and put a chr(13) at the beginning to shift them down. You can't have text boxes grow and still stay aligned. CR doesn't have this functionality.
