>>Hi,

>Ah, the "Plague of the Black Box". First the reason...the mode of the text is set to "Opaque" rather than "Transparent". This was quite common with reports that came from FPD to FPW via the transporter. Now the fix. Open the report as a table in the command window, then issue: REPLACE ALL MODE WITH 1 FOR INLIST(Objtype, 5, 8).


Beautiful. Thank you.
