#### appear for some users and not others

[krowe]

Hi

I have a report with a series of date fields. For me the dates show up fine, but for some other users they get ##### show up (i assume this means the field is too small to hold the data).

why does this happen, is there anyway to force the data to display even if the field is too small.

thanks

Kev

I've had the same thing happen. The report renders using the user's default printer, so it can differ. You just have to make it a little bigger.

Well that's a pain in the preverbial, but thanks for the prompt answer.

If you need me tomorrow i'll be redesigning reports!!!

LOL! Sorry; there may be a slick workaround, but in my case it was pretty intermittent, so I just tweaked textbox widths when somebody reported a problem. Most reports/textboxes were fine.
