>Thanks for the response Sergey. The reports we are printing are actually 3"x4" (and smaller) labels for prescription medicine. Space is really at a premium, so having a long patient's name stretch the textbox won't work. Your name, for instance, would appear as [Berezniker, ] but the law says we have to have a full name. Even if it looked like [Berezniker, Serg] that would be fine. FoxPro seems to see that space after the comma and decide to wrap to the next line, which there isn't one. Do you have any ideas how we might print the whole name until it just runs out of space?

Use a non-proportionnal font for this field and set the expression of the field to a fixed char length like : right(alltrim(name)+','+firstname,20)

But if we exchange an idea, we both get 2 ideas, cool...
