Please have a look at the screen capture below:

The table you are looking at has a problem wrapping text. You can clearly see that in the header:

Business
Activity
Detail

I merged all four cells in the grid's header and then plopped a label into it and added the text "Business Activity Details". But it seems to think it has to wrap the text where the right edge of the first cell used to be (as if it's still there).

You can see this in the last two rows as well. In the third from last (where it starts with "Class 'E' preference shares:") I tried checking "No Wrapping" in the General tab of the label properties, but as you can see, I DO want wrapping (otherwise the text goes off the edge of the grid), just at the right edge of all four merged cells.

Can someone help me? Thanks.
