Lineing up merged data properly on printout
I have a letter that I want to print that has data being merged from an
Access database. The letter should look as follows: Dear Dr. Jones, Here is the information about your patient Tim Smith: Classification: {Mergefield1} Discrepancy: {Mergefield2} Midline: {Mergefield3} Sincerely, Mark In order to get the text of the letter to line up properly, I did the following: {Advance \x 60} Classification: {Advance \x 200} {Mergefield1} {Advance \x 60} Discrepancy: {Advance \x 200} {Mergefield2} {Advance \x 60} Midline: {Advance \x 200} {Mergefield3} This works fine unless the data in {Mergefield2} is too long. Then what happens is when the data gets to the right margin of the page, it goes to the next line. Instead of lining up with the data 200 points from the left margin, the next line starts all the way at he left margin of the page. How can I get the spillover from a mergefield to resume on the next line, but 200 points from the left margin, so it lines up with the other mergefield data? Thanks, Mark |
