Hi Lutz,

I found this morning, from the customer, that the 6-th digit is only cut off when the report is converted to PDF. The application uses XFRX to convert the report to the PDF. If Martina is reading this message (I think she supports XFRX) she may chime in as to why one digit is cut off.

At this point, since the application and reports work for many other customers, I don't want to make any changes to the SET("ReportBehavior"). In my experience if the width of the column is not sufficient, the entire entry showing asterisks. But in this case, it simply cuts off the first digit.

Thank you.

>>A customer emailed me a PDF of their report (from my VFP 9 program). A column that is supposed to show the order number (could be 5, could be 6 digits), shows only 5 digits.
>>When I run the same report, in preview, on my PC, all 6 digits show.

>>TIA
