    Is there a way to make a line of text automaticaly go to 2 lines if to long.
    I am using the subject property and would like if the string is too long to
    add a 2nd line of text (ie...soft return). I tried size the text box to
    fill the area that can have text in it biut that did not work.

    Kinda like th FIT command in Autocad.

    Any help/suggested would be great!
    Please use plain text.

    I figured out ho to do the 2 lines.but can you have auto text size so if it
    is 1 line it is big and if 2 it gets smaller....

    My text boxes are just slightly shorter that the appropriate block in the
    titleblock. Whenever I exceed a certain number of characters, it
    automatically wraps. I have room for 3 lines in the title. Are your text
    blocks tall enough, vertically for additional lines?

    I use a fixed size so the text is the same on all lines independent of
    whether there is one line, two, or three.
