| The information in this article applies to: |
| - Microsoft Works for the Macintosh, version 3.0 |
SYMPTOMS
When you print a Works version 3.0 Database file in report view with the fields sized to the length of the field names, the printout of the field names may be truncated. This occurs with any font and on any printer.
CAUSE
This occurs because the field names appear in plain type in report view, but they print as boldface type.
RESOLUTION
To avoid truncated field names when printed, do the following:
- From the Report menu, select the report.
- Increase field (column) width by placing the mouse pointer on the right boundary of the field name. It becomes a sizing tool. Hold the mouse button down and drag the field to the right. The field should be at least two spaces wider than the field name.
MORE INFORMATION
This problem does not occur in Microsoft Works 4.0 for the Macintosh.
