I have a Crystal Report 11 file that is a letter. The first Details section contains a large text box that has print date, address block, and the salutation line. Every once in a while, the last line of the text box gets cut off so that the salutation isn't seen. It's very inconsistent in that sometimes, I run the report for one person in my system and the text is cut off, but if I run the report a few hours later for the same person, without having changed the values of the address or name in my database, then the letter looks fine.

I increased the text box height and the Details section height, but the problem still occurs intermittently. Has this happened to anyone else, or does anyone have an idea what could be causing this?

Normally this should be working if you check the "Can Grow" option in the common tab of the "Format Field/Text" settings. With that option checked it shouldn't matter which height you set.
