AutoGrow on Long Field to control AutoGrow on other boxes for a nice attribute row.

I have a subreport that aligns multiple attributes from a table created in a workflow into a nice "attribute table". The attribute table is created via a textbox for each datafield from the workflow and simply nicely lined up next to each other.

 

90% of the time the data is all within the proper box.  However from time to time the CanGrow pushes just that one long text field like below

 

Am I missing a better way to structure this "attribute table" then aligning multiple text boxes? Can they be controlled with a script to AutoGrow together? Am I missing a simple "group then autogrow to max" type function?

  Unfortunately there is no way to group Text Boxes within Report Designer, so that a control that grows will scale other related controls.  There's also no Table control that would let you generate your desired effect.

   

  You may be able to get the same effect by using vertical / horizontal lines rather than borders, and putting a border around the whole subreport.

   

  You can definitely write some script in the Scripting tab to reformat your report as you go, but that's a lot of extra work.
