To CFTable or to CFGRID, that is the question.

I have a help database that I am pulling a detail field query from and the text in the field is already formatted with line returns, But when I use CFTable to bring the data over it does not wrap the text. I need the text to wrap automatically and still retain it's basic formatting properties. I have played around with CFTable, and CFGrid but can't seem to get either to do this. CFTable truncates the text at a given point, and I just can't seem to get CFGrid to display it properly at all. On a side note, when using an HTML table to display the results the text does wrap, but it comes out in one solid paragraph..... YUK. Anyone out there know a better way to do this?
