>>We use a fox 2.6 app to print some forms here. It was working fine until we upgraded the machines to 95. Now, occasionally, it prints certain fields of the report used to print the for on top of each other, instead of one above the other like it should. If it happens on one record, it will always happen on that record no matter how many times you try to print it.

I was able to solve this problem. The old form had different fields layered
one on top of the other, using print when clauses to decide which of them gets printed. I was able to get around the problem by using a single text box and writing a small program to take in as paramaters all of the possible things
which could have been printed, and output a formatted string containing what should be printed. This has seemed to solve the problem.
