>I tried switching REPORTENGINE from 80 to 90. With that setting a number of accounting reports with a lot of columns squeezed onto a page print the *** showing the text box is not wide enough to fit the formatting. I'm already using as small a font as possible and the dollar formatting is as short as I dare. Is there any easy fix to this or do I need to rework a whole lot of reports?
>TIA

I can feel the pain!
