| | | | When I get this to work I want to put the memo field in one of
| | | | the sub-total fields.. My problem with printing has nothing to do with
| | | | this since I have placed the memo field in the data area. Thanks Gary
| | |
| | | Well, I've no further ideas.
| | | You *are* running the 5.0.14 fP binaries, yes?
| |
| | Thanks. I am not familiar with fp binaries.
| 
| Once again, please don't top-post.
| 
| I'm asking for what version of filePro you're running, that's not much of
| an answer.
| 
| I am running 5.0.14  - Thanks and Sorry for the top  post.

Good.

As I said, I have no problem printing the MEMO text on an output form.

I will admit that I was going crazy for a while, until I reviewed and
re-reviewed my settings. The MEMO field was 33, but on the output form, I
referred to it as 3.  Just shouldn't do things too late at night.  :-)
