Is there a way to set default fonts (as you drop fields on a report) and default screen views (for instance, not showing the Output window by default) in Report Designer? These are two things that are driving me nuts. (Bartender to Pirate: Is that a steering wheel in your pants? Pirate: Yar! And it be driving me nuts!) I've been all over Options, can't find it. Thanks!

Don't know about the OutPut Window.... i'd like to kill it too sometimes.

You can also set up report templates with specific fonts etc and remember that if you drag a table control in, you can set the default font for the table before adding any rows or columns - each added row / column / cell will pick up the default formatting unless you ooverwrite it

We could learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names and all are different colours but they all live in the same box.

Please read FAQ222-2244 before you ask a question
