ACE: clipped + wordwrap = lots of extra spaces???
Posted in 1994
Hi, I'm using SE and ISQL 4.10, and when writing an ACE report I would like to print a long description field with "clipped" and I would also like it to wordwrap. Whenever I use these two keywords together, ACE tacks on lots of spaces on the end of each line. Two examples: once the description the description did not wrap, and it added 112 spaces after the description. Once it wrapped one line, and it added zero spaces on the first line and 140 on the second line. Is this a known problem? Any way around it? thanks, Eric thompson@netcom.com (exact sql wording: print column 40, description clipped wordwrap right margin 75 can't reverse the order (i.e. wordwrap right margin 75 clipped) because it complains of invalid type (to clip), and it doesn't matter what the margin size is or if you specify one or not. also, the number of spaces it adds is seemingly inconsistent, but i didn't count them all and do a statistical breakdown :) thanks for any help!
