>>>I was just asked by one of my colleagues if I know of a way to right justify a textbox on a report. Right justify and trim combinations do not work. I remember some time ago that I had a similar problem. I no longer use 2.6 (except to maintain old systems I wrote). If anybody else has this problem, I found a way around it - make the textbox format numeric! I came across this when I thought about numeric boxes printing left justified if their format was character - reverse logic made me try the numeric format. Hope this helps anybody still using 16 bit FoxPro.

>As my message said, I tried right justify and trim check boxes. (Actually, I did not specify that I tried the check boxes, just the combinations). These didn't seem to work. It was not my app, so I don't know if anything else may have messed it up. The previous occurrences of this was some time ago when I was writing 2.6 apps with the same problems. The numeric check box worked perfectly though!

I just did a quick report (using FPW 2.6a) and didn't have a problem getting a character field to right align, either with or without the trim. A memo field, however, can't be right aligned.
