I am doing work for a client using Access 2000. I am having a problem with
one report where I have to display a date field using the format: mmddyyyy.
As this report is printing a check this field has to be alligned as
distributed. Despite trying numerous things the right most digit is being
partially truncated. Has anyone else out there had this problem? Also, is
there a work around?

Thanks
 
Hi Gary,

how about making the control wider or the font smaller?

ps

this is common to happen when you take something from one
environment to another -- different printer drivers.

Hi Gary,

because each environment uses different printer drivers,
this happens. I normally make each control just a bit wider
than it needs to be for exactly that reason -- this doesn't
work?????

try including a space at the end of your format code ...

Hi Crystal,

Thanks, I was thinking that the trick would be to append a space at the end
of the formatted date ie. mmddyyyy & space. I will give tis a try and see if
it works.

Cheers

Gary
