I am currently developing a software for lawyers which involves a lot of customised reports such as letter of demands, statement of claims etc. Is there any way to manipulate the memo field contents to print with double space and text justify like in word for eg? In report writer, when you format a field with 'Remove line if Blank", will the field immediately below it move up to take its place? Another problem is how to programmatically switch from the current default printer to the Generic/Text printer for the purpose of printing to file and when done, to switch back to the previous default printer without the user knowing this has taken place. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Justify Text and Double Space Printing From Memo Field in Reports
- Thread starter codetyko

Been awhile since I played with the 2.6 report form generator, but I do not believe you can get it to Justify or double space. You might want to try exporting the memo field to a text file and then doing what you want to do with it and the reimporting and printing. Or exporting to a text file and printing from a 3rd party software, Or exporting to a text file and importing into a word processor.
