When I ran the function it did not line up perfectly. See the attached jpg of my output. I had my font set to Courier New. It was close until the last 3 words. I need to present this in a PDF and after I export it using the suggested monospaced fonts, I still run into similar problems there...

I did courier new but it didn't line up. It was close but not perfect. by the time it got to "dog" it was off by a letter. I'll try it in a memo field. Thanks

I did try just about every font on my computer and eventually gave up. Maybe I missed them. I'll probably look into it in the next few days but it only took me a few minutes to make my own font.

To all who gave me programming tips here: I found that even though I ran the function offered by GriffMG, on exporting the nicely aligned script to a PDF the letters and overlines once again don't line up in a report which I'm planning as my final printed output. I guess I would need a uniform...

The usage of "quick brown fox" is not applicable to what I'm doing even tho it jumps and didn't "jumped" as you reminded me. I could have said "the sky is green with blue turnips" or "dighd id sdifnd ilk". The point is, in my project I'm encrypting famous quotes and just used "any text" to show...

Thank you GriffMG, Mike, Olaf, TheProgrammerGuy, I appreciate all your answers - I think I will use the function that GriffMG laid out for me. As far as using a uniform font, I'll experiment with that also maybe in an export and see what happens with Courier New. Not home now, so when I get...

I'm writing some cryptograms in VFP 6.0 and I am using the report generator to print out my cryptograms. I want to place an overline (as opposed to an underline) over each letter of the encrypted sentence with a space in between each letter so that each underline clearly represents each letter...

Feherke, Thanks, I will get ride of invisibles. Aimskee

I needed to write a very simple query using MySQL where I wanted to select all the words in a field in a table (of a database) with a length of 4. So I typed in the query tab the following and executed the query: Select * from wordList where length(trim(cWord))='4' Unfortunately the results of...

Thanks! I'll opt for ASV, it sounds like just what I need. you're a peach. Aimskee

Does anyone know how I can quickly extract text and or graphics from my Flash files in batch? I have around 130 Flash files, some of which are animated text and images, some of which are just one or the other. I need to make alternative text-only and/or static graphic popups for each file. For...

thanks BillyRayPreachersSon and JDemmi, these code bits work and are a great help. I printed this out and showed my colleagues, thanks again - Aimskee

The company I'm working for asked me to normalize the font size on their website so that no matter which browswer, or which computer, the font size will look about the same size. I said "okay." Now I realize that I shouldn't have said that. They use a css file that causes the body text on...

MajP, Thanks for your sql based solution. I have not tried it yet, but I tried your first solution and it worked perfectly. I needed to first add an eventcounter field to my table and then created a procedure to number the event field. I put the table in clientid field order ascending, with...

MajP, This sounds doable. Eloquent can take a day off. I'll give this procedure a try. I haven't been programming too much lately and your helpful tip is highly appreciated. Aimskee
