I am pretty new to FM but I have created a database that contains three tables. 1) Client list - name, address, etc. 2) Task list - date and work done, 3) Fees - invoice number and charges. I created an invoice layout with appropriate client name and invoice relationships between three tables - one invoice/client with all tasks listed by date with charges. It works fine. Except, some tasks require a longer description than others and portals evidently don't slide to eliminate the blank space inside the description field but keep the set number of lines. Naturally the question is "How do I remove that blank space?" Thanks.

you cant, portal row height is fixed

Hi RonL,

Do a search for [color:blue]+Printing +Portals (use the plus sign as shown) and you will find several topics about this topic.

Although you can print Portals, or use then in a report, their purpose is to allow the user to view related data. The problem with them, is as you discovered, is that they are difficult to make them work the way you want. Instead, make your report in the file where the original data resides.

HTH
