Check to see if the font you are printing has the £ character in the ASCII position that you have it stored in the table. Not all fonts map the same visual characters in both the display and printed versions.

Maddy,

Try this: In Crystal Reports, open your report. Go to File / Options / Database. Look for a checkbox "Translate DOS strings". Try each of the two settings for this checkbox. In each case, save your report and try it again from VFP.

Mike
