Auto size is a command that is available for Field and Text objects.  When you select this option, ReportPro automatically sizes the object so it can properly display the text associated with the object.

 

For Text objects this procedure is very straight forward, but for field objects you may get unwanted results with Auto Size.  The reason for this is that ReportPro only has one row of data available to use as a sample.  It is possible that the one row of sample data doesn't correctly represent the data that will be encountered during reporting.  This problem is most apparent when working with memo fields.
