I have been developing forms to create court documents which extract data from a table. The suggestions of members of this group have been most helpful.
I have the reports basically running and producing usable documents at this time but I need to apply some custom formatting to "Plaintiffs" name and "Defendants'" name in the forms. I need to capitalize the names in the memos. I know how to do this in a form but have been unsuccessful in doing same in a report.
The Plaintiff's name field in the report is an actual column in the associated table. The Defendant's name field is a variable.
Part of the problem is that the Format command speaks of making the "____" the same number of characters as the text in the field. Obviously, with a number of different Plaintiffs and a great many different Defendants, there is no way I would know this length ahead of time.
I know this has to be fairly simple but I have been unable to get this work in the report to this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
