SteveS Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Hello, I have a "text" field on my report that extends four page lengths. If the text entered fits one page, I only want one page to print, instead I get all four pages no matter how much text is entered into this field. I have done this in FM4.0, I thought I was doing it right in FM 7.0. I selected the involved text field,and selected the following; "format," "sliding/printing," "sliding up based on all above," "also reduce the size of the enclosing part." When I view the layout in layout mode, I do not see the arrows pointing up, which identify the field as sliding-up. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

bcooney Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Well, not seeing the arrows could be that you don't have "Show Sliding" on under the View menu. Is it sliding in Preview Mode in FM7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveS Posted November 6, 2007 Author Share Posted November 6, 2007 You are correct; I was able to view the sliding arrows after following the steps that you described. I believe the problem is related to a conversion issue. The original program was designed in FM 4.0 and converted to FM 7.0. I could not make the slide field work with the converted file, but when I made a new file in FM 7.0, the sliding field worked appropriately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
