Hi,

I always try to avoid the use of label form.
Use report form instead which also can be used to print labels,

Label form is done fore backwards compatibility in visual foxpro.

Mike,
You are right.
I mentioned this before.
I was informed about that a while ago.
I will figure out where I got that info. Have to go through my E-mail history for that.
I will keep you informed.

Mike,

I found that in march of this year I discussed with Anders Altberg this issue.
He pointed me to the fact that the label command is retained for backwards compatibily only.
As he has a 'degree' on vfp I do believe him blindly.
(is this good english? <G>)

By the way, Anders is a specialist on SQL-issues.
