For our uses, this means that there may be some "junk" in fields, which we only see when we do a print report. Does anyone know how to limit the size of fields to the displayed size so that this doesn't happen? I'll summarize any responses and post them. Thanks Kurtis MacFerrin macferrin@slsvax.harvard.edu
