One template that I have created contains a problem I do not know how to adjust or fix without an extremely specific rule. The sentence contains the date "October 31st." - with the ordinal part of the number (the "st") being superscripted and a period being typed directly afterward. This line wraps around to a second line when a variable name is placed within the sentence. HOWEVER....when names of certain width spacing are placed within this variable entry the line grows enough to move the period down to a second line but not the ordinal part. I keep getting a entry that looks like
.................................October 31st . This is a continuing sentence...... I've tried placing a into a rule for this date value but that still breaks the period to another line and adds a space before it as well. It seems to act as though the superscript part is a separate word and does not connect the period to it as a sentence ender. The only way to get around this was to compile the data file, look at the output and create a rule (multiple if statements) checking for every name that shows this oddity and adding a few extra spaces before the "31st." forcing the entire entry to the second line. ............................................October 31st. This is a continuing sentence...... I've tried adjusting the widows setting, adding   and characters, adjusting the width of the text box, adjusting tracking, and nothing works - at some point a name will be of enough length to push the period to a second line by itself. I'd even be willing to attempt a sacrificial offering if I could ever figure out what the program wants!!! Is this a known issue with FusionPro? How can I correct this without having to go through and look at each and every record and create a mega-multiple if-else statement to correct it? Working on a PC with Windows XP Pro (sp3) and FusionPro 4.2P1d with FusionPro Server (same version). Have access to a Mac with Tiger OSX and same version of FP, and the result is the same. The font that I'm using is simply TimesNewRoman 11 point. David Sweet HKM Direct Market Communications +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- FusionPro 5.0 Now Available!
