Some dusty old brain cells are trying to get my attention, with limited success. I ran into an issue a few years ago with formatting changing. I *want* to say that it involved copy & paste of fields not preserving everything about their margins. I think that the solution was to store the margins I wanted as a custom property, and have a script that would cycle through everything setting margins. There may have been something else about the properties of pasted text and the properties of the field. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
