Nadya,
>Caption font and size changes by installation. You should first read its setting. Assuming it's Arial,12 you could do something like this :

*form.init

Hi Cetin,

Doesn't work :( Visually seems to closer to left corner:

local lcCaption
lcCaption='Table Maintenance for '+ proper(pcTable)
this.caption = ;
     padc(lcCaption,;
     (wcols( )-;
     txtwidth(lcCaption,'Arial',12)*;
     fontmetric(6,'Arial',12)/fontmetric(6)))

I tried this.FontName, this,FontSize instead of Areal,12 and wfont(1),wfont(2),wfont(3). Same result for all three attempts...
