How do I get CanGrow to work for a textbox in a table?

I have a very basic table that I want to use as a subreport. It has only one row and one column, and it's textbox value is:

Fields!VendorType.Value & ": " & Fields!VendorName.Value & " " & Fields!VendorContactName.Value & IIF(Fields!VendorPhone.Value > " "," " & Fields!VendorPhone.Value,"")

The Data uses a parameter from the parent report to get the values, and there are usually several vendors for each report. The textbox in the row has it's 'CanGrow' property set to Yes, because sometimes these values are too long for one line. But when I run the report, it does not grow. it just truncates the value.

Any ideas? what can I do?

If you just render the table as a stand-alone report, do the textboxes grow? Which renderer are you using? Remember textboxes can only be grown vertically, not horizontally.|||

Well, I was working up some examples for you when I realized that I was not getting the data I thought I was. So, it is working. Sorry! But thanks.
