Take a look at the 'SetPreviewIndent' method of 'PaintManager'.  It allows you to set the margins for the preview text.

Width, not height. Here is a picture of what I am talking about.
A. is Codejock Report Control
B. is Outlook

See how in A (codejock report control) the preview text spans the whole width of the control but in B (outlook) there is an indent where the preview text doesnt appear (indicated with a big red X)

What I wanted to know is can you make the codejock report control display its preview text indented the same as outlook does.

I'm not sure what you mean.  What option do I set inOutlook?  In the reportcontrol you can specify how many lines aredisplayed in the preview text.  You can just add line breaks inthe text to keep it from filling the entire row.]]> Mon, 09 Aug 2004 14:33:24 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1041&PID=2697&title=report-control-preview-text#2697 <![CDATA[Report Control - Preview text : I was just looking at the Report...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1041&PID=2696&title=report-control-preview-text#2696 Author: Maui

I was just looking at the Report Control sample.
I noticed that the Preview Text spans the whole width of the control.

Since this control seems to emulate the grid in Outlook so well I was wondering why this aspect of it had been made different.

I looked at the documentation and all I could see was the ability to turn preview text on or off.

Is there a way to make it only span certain columns the same as outlook?

Im not bothered by it, just curious.

Thanks
