select "Autosize Height". Do the same for the Job Accomplishment column.
The height of the detail band will adjust to the size of the column.
This is also a big complaint of mine. When you have a compositeQuote:>I also noticed when I include this datawindow or any datawindow in a

datawindow, PB forces you into print preview. Their rational is that
composite dw's are only for reports as you can't do updates so they force
the preview mode. I have found no way around this.
