The default behavior in BIRT is to word wrap on white space. You can
use a style to prevent this, but it sounds like you want the wrap. Is
there white space in the text? If not you could use a text element
instead of a data item and set the expression to something like:

<div STYLE="word-wrap:
break-word"><value-of>row["mycolumn"]</value-of></div>

Make sure to set the type to HTML in the drop down at the top of the
text element.
