Height	Maximum number of lines on which the column prints. When the information prints on two (or more) lines, SQR Production Reporting Studio breaks the lines at words, rather than truncating the words. For example: If line height = 1 Susan B. Anthony School for Gi If line height = 2 Susan B. Anthony School for Girls For height values greater than one, the Wrap Options enable. (See Wrap Options below).
Wrap Options	Enabled for Height values greater than 1. Wrap options wrap text at word spaces, and additional text is moved to a new line. Convert these characters to spaces—Converts characters to spaces before wrapping. Typical usage for data with embedded line feeds is to set this option to <13>. Wrap these characters—Forces a wrap to occur at the character(s) specified. Typical usage for data with embedded line feeds is to set this option to <10>. The wrap options correspond to the STRIP and ON arguments in the WRAP command. See WRAP in Volume 2 of the Hyperion SQR Production Reporting Developer's Guide for more information.
