I have SET REPORTBEHAVIOR to 90 and it's working fine now since I have SET COMPATIBLE OFF (using LIKE() function as LIKE(someexpression, ALLTRIM(someexpression)).

But I have that second problem which I don't know how to solve which is:
In reports in 8.0 I have Numerical field with Format: ##,###,###,###,###,###.##
In reports those fields are sometimes smaller because of limited space and I check Strech with overflows in order to appear normal, otherwise it would appear asterisk **,***,***,***,***,***.**
In 8.0 those fields were working fine but in 9.0 those fields are stretching into another line expanding band making it taller which is totally unexpected for me.
How to fix that so that works fine in 9.0?
