How do I stop text from wrapping within a cell?
or
How do I make a cell automatically grow horizontally and not vertically?

As far as I can tell, this functionality (automatic horizontal growth)
does not exist in Reporting Services. To not allow cell/text wrapping,
you would remove the selection of 'Can increase to accommodate
contents' on the Format tab of the Textbox Properties (below Textbox
height). Sorry I could not be of greater assistance.

That is correct.

The RDL CanGrow property only works in the vertical direction. Setting this
to false will disable this functionality.

My report uses a table to display the data in.
Even though all the cells is set to CanGrow=False the cells will expand
vertically and the text will wrap.
For me it seems that the CanGrow=False has no effect at all.

Is it just me or did I miss something somewhere?
