I am using Crystal Reports for VS.NET 2003.
Is there any way to implement superscript and subscript text in Crystal? For example, I would like to superscript the numeric portion ("235") of the following string:
"U235 is my favorite isotope"
The only way I have found to do this is to put the "235" in a separate text field that uses a smaller font size, and overlay it into the gap that I intentionally left in the larger text field. For display and printing purposes, this works OK, but if a report containing these strings is exported to Excel, the text fields are exported as separate cells, which makes the exported report look funny.
I can create this string in Word, then cut and paste it into a text field in Crystal (which initially seems to work), but as soon as I click off the field, all the characters in it are converted to the same font size.
