I believe I found the cause of my problem, but I am hoping if somebody can
verify this for me. I think that the problem is that I have the can grow
property set with a line spacing greater than 0. Putting a border around the
text box I could watch the size of the text box, and it was the same size as
I increased the line spacing. Hence, the text box control was growing to fit
the size of the data with 0 line space, but needed to be bigger due to the
increased line space and was then leaving out the last line of data.
