Multiline item in report control

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,

I am trying to make a multi line item in a report control. My code looks like this:

column = reportcontrol.Columns.Add(0, "Column1", 50, True)column.Editable = False

column = reportcontrol.Columns.Add(1, "Column2", 50, True)

column.Editable = False

column.EditOptions.EditControlStyle = XTPReportEditStyle.xtpEditStyleMultiline
reportcontrol.Records.DeleteAll()
record = reportcontrol.Records.Add()
cell = record.AddItem("Hello")
cell = record.AddItem("Hello" + Chr(13) + Chr(10) + "World")
reportcontrol.Populate()

I thought that setting the column editoption to multiline would give me multi line items in that column, but the text in column2 shown as Hello <2 squares> World. Obviously I am missing a point somewwhere but I can't seem to figure out where.

Any help appriciated.
