>>I'm using VFP 6.0. This should be easy but I'm tired of struggling so decide to post. Basically, I have a report that prints a memo and then info below it. I can't get the data or label below the memo to print correctly. Here is the basic layout in the detail band:
>>
>>Description: (Memo)
>>
>>Quantity: (Numeric field)
>>
>>I have the description set to stretch with overflow and no matter how I set the Quantity label or the field (ie, fix to bottom, fix to top, or float) it does not display correctly if the memo has multiple lines.

I know from personal experience that under VFP 6.0, the fields will float but the labels will not. What Rob will probably have to do is to set the memo to stretch and the fields to float, but change the labels to field expressions. That is, instead of having a label object, have a field object with the expression set to whatever the label was, in quotes, and make sure to set THAT field to float as well.
