January 30, 200719 yr I am still very new to FM - but very keen... Once again apologies if this is not a good question or indeed in the wrong forum... Is there a way to place a text field onto a portal and set the portal rows (or maybe the format the text field) so that it automatically expands to show all of the contents of the text field - ie varying heights. Many thanks Cheers Simon
January 30, 200719 yr Simon, The ability for fields sizes to self-expand is not possible in FileMaker.
January 30, 200719 yr Author I will put a scroll bar on for the browse layouts ty Come to think about it though - for things like invoice layouts where a description could be one line or many lines I assume you still can't have expanding fields. Maybe I should use a Crystal layout linked by ODBC to the FM database - can you call an external app from within FM and pass parameters? Cheers Simon
