I think you mean you want the field to grow based on the length of the data for that row.
This is handled by setting the field to "Can Grow".
When you place it on the report canvas, right click on it and select Format Field, click onthe Common tab and mark the Can Grow box to true (checked).
This makes the field expand on the Y axis only. It also will expand over other fields that are below it on the same section. To counter act that part you place it on it's on section (like header1b or detailsb).
Is that what you need?
