Symptoms


Couple of things with the Data label control.

Diagnoses


For the first issue, the Text property on the data labels properties, only allows for 255 characters. (This include the formatting tags text).

 

Resolution

The suggested workaround for the first issue is to change the Data type for the data label control to Memo type and use a Transfer data rule to add the text to the data label.
The workaround for the second issue is to add the data label it in top of the table, instead of the top of the view, and move the "Title" label and "Title" Textbox a bit down.
