Label autosizes when I edit the text in it

[annsolomon]

I've used Access for years but haven't figured this out yet.

I place a label in my header, stretch it across most of the page, then center it. Looks good. Later, I decide to change the wording in the label. When I leave the label, it shrinks and I have to stretch it across the page again manually.

Is this normal or am I doing something wrong?

Is this label on a form, or on something else (such as a spreadsheet or web page)? I've been using this same technique for over a year on forms and have never had this happen. There is, I believe, an Autofit or Autosize feature asociated with spreadsheets and Pivot tables.

The label is on a report. There probably is a feature in Access similar to the Autofit you mentioned but I'll be darned if I can find it.
