>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.

9991. I gave up on the built-in report writer, for creating text files, and eventually created a class that duplicates most functions of the report writer. You will have to re-write your reports, though.
