Can You Wrap Text in an Access List Box?
By Jane H (25 posts -- read other by posts Jane H)
Recently I was asked if you can wrap text in a list box on an Access form. The short answer is no.
However, you could try putting an unbound text box near the list box. In the text box properties set the Control Source to point back to the list box property. In the image below, I’ve set the control source to =[lstCharity].[column](0). In this example, 0 is one less than the column number I want to display in the text box (My list only had one column). If your list had two columns, you would use 0 to display the first column, 1 to display the second column.
The results, as you can see in the following image, allows you to have a list box with long entries and still be able to read them.
