Eric,
How are you viewing this report? Does the viewer use a fixed width font, or a proportional one? Try using Notepad with Courier New.

>Hello all,
>We have converted our application to Windows and are using VFP6 with our current version. We have noticed that when we sentd a report TO FILE ASCII we don't get the nice columns and spacing that we had in our DOS based versions. What is happening here? Is there any way to get a file that doesn't smash all the data together and preserves the basic structure of the reports as they would appear on the screen or printer. I don't want the formatting to carry over, just all the data with appropriate spacings.
