Cheque Edit & Roman Numerals

I have encountered a strange situation that I cannot explain. In
filePro 5.0, where I use the CHEQUE edit to print checks, the "written"
output has changed from Arabic numerals to Roman numerals, e.g.
"$374.39" prints the "written" part of the check as "CCCLXXIV*** zero
and 39/100 dollars *** ". My check global dummy field da picks up the
$ value from field 5 "da(80,cheque,g)=5" .
The CHEQUE edit shows as "CHEQUE:[{!" "!}](zero|<*** > lots cents|<***
zero>cents)" and check2 as "chek2:( !0! | ones< hundred > ) ( !00! | (
!0! ones | tens ) )".
Could I have a corrupted edit file or could this be related to field
length? Eighty seems adequate and this is a recent occurrence which may
have happened while I was fiddling with an client's older filePro. Any
thoughts?
