STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION
The intersections of graphical boxes drawn on a report should appear as crosses. However, under these specific circumstances, they appear in the form of an H.

Steps to Reproduce Problem
1. Create a report in FoxPro version 2.6x for MS-DOS.

2. Draw two intersecting graphical boxes on the report.

3. Select both of the boxes, and on the Report menu, click Group Boxes.

4. Save the report.

5. Take the report to a computer that's running FoxPro version 2.5x for

MS-DOS and MS-DOS version 5.0. 6. Run the report. NOTE: Where the graphical boxes intersect, they appear in the form of an H instead of a cross as expected.
