Jaime and John,

I think the font problem with the reports exists only in windows 98 and ME. With windows 95,XP,2000 etc it seems fine. However, while we are on the subject, there are some (ancient) RTL bugs in VFP:

1. The combo and listbox occasionally go nuts when the RightToLeft property is set with alignment=1(right) . This means that when trying to use the scrollbar dragging it down causes the records to go up. Unfortunately dragging it up becomes impossible in this situation.
2. Edit boxes do not work properly: If the controlsource is a field (i.e. mytable.remarks) hebrew and english get mixed up. The solution is to use a memory variable (then it works properly)
3. Even when setting a memry variable to be the controlsource of a field, when writing any memo that is longer than a 4-5 lines there is NO possibility to access the beginning of the memo (for editing etc.) except if the user has taken care to insert a Carriage Return every couple of lines.
4. With VFP7 & VFP 8 and windows XP (only) the debugger gets all messed up.
5. And of course, the horrendous bug Jaime wrote about. We did not find any setting where the grid works

I am trying now to play with the settings ( i.e FontCharSet properties and family ) and alignments to see if there is any setting that works :-((
