Don,

I would make a backup copy of the report and than delete all Platform = WINDOWS records.

The problem is that the reports are no longer formated correctly when printed, but appear aligned when viewed in the Report Designer. I suspect that when the frx was first opened, VFP dialoged "Convert to VFP", and the response was Yes.
