I have a report which contains a number of memo fields positioned one under the other, all of which should float down the page depending on the contents of the preceding data. I am using Bo Durban's Moxie Objects report listener because much of the text is in memo fields in RTF format.

The syntax is as follows...
REPORT FORM MyReport PREVIEW WINDOW myWindow ;
NOCONSOLE OBJECT NEWOBJECT("mxobjrl", "mxobjlib")

On one particular pc on a network the application is running as an .exe file with the VFP9 runtime libraries. When the report is sent to the printer the output is fine, but when viewed in preview mode the memo data does not float as it should do, and one field often overlaps the other.

When I run report preview from the same .exe file on a VFP development machine, it runs fine.

Are there any other files that are installed with the development version of VFP, which may not be present on other machineS? I have checked GDIplus.dll and it is present on the machine in question. Could the problem be anything to do with ReportPreview.app?


Any help would be appreciated.

Alan
