ssrs display of address information

    I am creating a new SSRS 2008 report and I am placing an return address in the report. The Address will look like the following:

    Request Office

    Tim Smith

    123 test ave

    Wahoo, NE 68109

    I have placed this information in a table since the data will line up nicely. However the problem is that the the address looks 'double' spaced instead of 'single' spaced. I want this address to appear in an envelope where the entire address can be displayed in a clear plastic section of the envelope.

    Right now the address looks 'double' spaced which causes the entire address to not be displayed fully in the 'clear plastic' area of the envelope.

    I have tried to make the width of the lines of the table narrower but that does not help.

    Thus can you tell me what I can do with this table?

    Should I display the address in several textboxes right next to each other? **Note the address information comes from the sql server database.

    Thus can you tell me how to fix my problem and give me directions on how to use the method that you recommend?

    What is that text at the start of your post (jassie1 etc.)?

    Could you please post a screenshot of the report in SSRS and/or as printed? Also, what is the font you're using for your addresses - if it is a custom font, try changing it to Times New Roman or Arial.

    I can't recall seeing the symptom you've described, but a screenshot may help identify the cause.

  • IF you set the Top and Bottom Padding on the textboxes to 0, does that fix it? That's part of what controls the line spacing between the textboxes.
