Justifying memo fields

Post by alaggio » Thu Oct 24, 2002 11:57 am

Kathleen,____I am trying to format as justified and word-wrap a text wich is in a memo field of a dbf file. __I put the field in the report designer (version 9.0) as word-wrap and justified, the font I use is Arial 8. __The result is not the expected, since the right margin of the text is not full justified, and RR puts a lot of blank spaces between the words of each line.__Do you have any suggestions?____Thanks in advance.______

Try using Options Preferences and setting your memo editor to Other rather than dBase. This will give you different (and maybe better) results.____Kathleen__R&R Support

Kathleen,____I tried what you said and the behavior was different, but RR still does not full justify the text in the memo field.____Please, do you have any other suggestion?____

Other than changing the width of the field or the font, there is no other way to control this in R&R.____Sorry.__Kathleen__R&R Support
