Hi Cathy. Unfortunately labels don't have an alignment property. They are always left aligned, so they extend beyond the expected place because they are longer at runtime than at design time.

In the hope that there was an undocumented behavior, I modified a copy of the frx at runtime for labels with Offset = 1 (right aligned) but unfortunately that doesn't work.

The only thing that I have found to work is to move labels to the left an appropriate amount just before outputing the report. Doug Hennig has provided a class that calculates the exact length of a GDI+ string and you can figure the amount to move left from that, but it is too slow. A fast approximation would be perfect, though, if someone as one.

>What I am saying is that you have to set the alignment property to "Right" and then also visually align the right sides in the designer. If you do that, it should print out right-aligned on the actual paper. But if you don't set the alignment property to "right", even though they look right aligned in the designer, there's no guarantee you'll get right aligned on paper.

>>>In the editor, select the fields that you want right-aligned and then select Format from the menu, then Text Alignment, then pick right alignment. That should make sure they really show up right-aligned on the printed output.
