ASP Hyperlink control text wrapping

I'm trying to get the text within the ASP Hyperlink control to NOT wrap when it is placed within a html table as below:

<table style="width: 320px" class="noLines">
<tr><td style="width: 300px"> <asp:HyperLink Target="_self" ID="frmSuggest"  Text ="Click Click Click Click Click" Visible="false" runat="server"></asp:HyperLink> 
</td></tr>
<table>

I have tried adding a width property to the HyperLink and this does the trick unfortunatley it shifts all the other controls within this table by this width as well!

i don't know if i understand you right, but here is a VB function that will trim a string without cutting words, you can convert it to c# here http://converter.telerik.com/

Function neatTrim( strToTrim, desiredLength ) '==== strToTrim = trim( strToTrim )

if len( strToTrim ) < desiredLength then
    neatTrim = strToTrim
    exit function
else
    if inStrRev( strToTrim, " ", desiredLength ) = 0 then
        strToTrim = left( strToTrim, desiredLength - 1 ) & "&#133;"
     else
        strToTrim = left( strToTrim, inStrRev( strToTrim, " ", desiredLength + 1 ) -1 ) & "&#133;" 'no carriage return here
    end if
end if

neatTrim = trim( strToTrim )
End Function

in addition to El Greco's answer, nobr tag is another option

<asp:HyperLink Target="_self" ID="frmSuggest" Visible="false" runat="server">
    <nobr>Click Click Click Click Click</nobr>
</asp:HyperLink>

<td style="white-space:nowrap;">
  <!-- You link here -->
</td>

Overrides though the width setting.
