I gotta vow to test any scripts I publish!

Hi Peter!
I had already found that by moving add 1 to x to after the repeat loop

When x tMaxLines, the twelve checkbox is not carried over and appears out
Peter,
I did resolved my problem by changing the rounding precision from 0 to 2. I
have not tried this on Windows yet but it does work on the Mac.
put round(the height of field final/ the textheight of field final,2) into
tMaxLines
Again thanks for your time and assistance!
Charles
Great, sounds like you figured it all out! My next suggestion was to
change the calculation of tMaxLines but you beat me to it.

I will try your suggestion! Thanks so much! By the way, I believe we are both

Yes, it's OK, we're used to it. :-) 20 different answers is sort of like what

Yeah, I'd like to think that too. Except that if you start thinking that you

Got my Ph.D. Taught, and discovered I started too late to afford college
for my own kids.

I was away from my computer when you submitted your suggestion. I found an
error in your code (nor) for nbr for the first line of code. I added the

Despite that change, I got another error

put line tLines+1 to x of theList into field final2

Confirm that tLines contains a number, that's the most likely cause.
