Since it's possible to change the heading for a particular field in a particular report, we can't go back and change the headings in the report after you change them in the data dictionary, as that would potentially overwrite your custom changes.

Thanks again. Perhaps the problem is indeed in the Printer Driver. Do you know how to check the problem and correct if necessary? The computer doesn't have VFP installed, only VFP based Exceed program with which I have a hard time trying to figure out the meaning of tables, fields and relations between them.

I guess I need to completely work out DataDictionary first.

I have another question - is there a way to design a custom template using SQuery? Say, I would like certain fonts, general page layout, may be specific Header and Footer and I would like to be able to change the template and have the changes reflected in all reports - is it possible?

Also for the filter condition - is there a way to be able to change wording on it without going to Advanced Layout?

Thanks again for your help.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
