That's sure good to know, Dragan, Thanks - will definitely save me some grief! Especially since my client is in CA. Actually, removing the alias from the the fields in the report is the only required change to the report, so they can do it themselves (they wrote the system originally).

This is a very small system, and there is a possibility that I'll re-write it in VFP, but I'm trying to give the client all the options.

Ii looks like I'd just be modifying a few .PRG files. Anything else I should know?

Thanks again...J

>One trouble with this is that if you edit the report with FPW it will create a copy of all the records in the .frx and recalculate all the positions into the new units - so you'll basically have two versions of the report in the same file. Just copy any of the reports, open it in FPW and make any little change, save and then browse the .frx file, you'll see what I mean. Any changes you make in FPW will not be visible in FPD; however, if you run the same report from VFP, it will probably run the FPW version if it's there. You'd be better off if you had FPD.
