Not ideal, but interesting. I already have over 100 fields in page getting names from an array. If there is no other way I'll do it, but it's cluttered and probably error prone.

Thanks.

>You may try to do it in a different way similar to a table of context discussed by Cathy Pountney in http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnfoxgen9/html/VFP9Reports2.asp. Create three separate report fileds: Name, dots field with expression REPLICATE(".", < whatever >) and Phone #. Sent to Back dots field so it's covered by 2 other fields.
