Using a grid I display several rows of comments on a form. the comments vary in length so I am looking for a dynamic paragraph field. the word wrapping with a paragraph field is nice for long comments, but is less than desired for short comments. What other options do I have? thx...

You can always use char(13) as a newline character within paragraph fields, which will "force wrap" the contents. So if you wanted to limit the number of characters on a line in a paragraph field, you could build a custom Expression Rule that would insert char(13) at specified points within any literal to achieve the wrapping that you're looking for. There may be a more elegant solution, but nothing else is coming to mind for me right now. Good luck!
