Crystal Reports and a Memo field

Jim,

There are 3 settings you have to change to use memo or other fields.
1. In the alignment properties, check 'word wrap'
In the Format properties,
2. Change the 'character format' to x(300)
3. Set the field width to whatever is appropriate for your report.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [Vantage] Crystal Reports and a Memo field

When I look up a comment or memo field, Invoice Detail.Invoice Comment for
example Crystal only recognizes the item as 8 characters. Any ideas on how
to report on the memo fields with Crystal?


Thanks
