  1. I've had the same problem--resulting in about 50 layouts getting screwed up. However, I don't think the problem is the line height. I used Arial font throughout most of my layouts. (I'm really a PC junkie.) When I change the offending type to Helvetica, the problem is corrected. Anyone have a solution? I don't want to have to fix 50+ layouts! Thanks
  2. I'm doing something similar with labels for video tapes. Would like to enter a date range to limit the records being browsed to one week's worth of TV shows (5 days), select the number of labels to print for each (might be a different quantity), then select the label to start printing on....start with the 5th label down for example. I've been scratching my head for quite awhile about this one! I'm using FM7 or Developer 7. Any and all help is appreciated!
  3. Shadow, I'm new to FM...having a lot of MS Access background. Is there not a way in FM to simply copy a complete table and paste it in another database; same with the scripts?! I've looked and don't see that capability--maybe I'm not sure what to look for. Guess what I'm asking is do I have to recreate the complete date picker in each database I want to use it? I would rather not have it "outside" the main file. I just bought Developer thinking that capability would be there. Haven't found it yet. I've worked in Access a lot and found it so much better to be able to work in a "dummy" database creating tables, queries, etc.--then simply copy them and paste them in the working database when they were working properly. Users could continue to work in the active database and I wouldn't have to worry about doing something that disabled the working copy. Thanks!

  5. I'm so frustrated. I'm trying to print VHS spine labels (Avery 5199). For some reason, it won't print all the labels for the "found set"--shows them in Preview Mode and also in Browse Mode....but when you print, only prints the first label instead of the quantity in the found set. I'm relatively new to Filemaker...and quite frankly, I'd switch back to Access in a heartbeat if it was available for Macs!
