Report Builder, then the second line appears OK, but most of the records
don't need a second line and end up being double spaced. Is there
any work
around for this.
What I have tried is to use a macro to check the length of each text
string
and if it exceeds 40 characters then I create a second record to contain
the excess characters.

Are you using "Oracle Report Builder" or the included "Report Builder"
extension? Which version of LO are you using, and which OS and
version of "Oracle Report Builder" are you using? It would be helpful
to know these things for the people here that know that type of
package inside and out.
Are we still using "Oracle Report Builder" for the extension, or did
someone modify it for TDF/LO and changed the name to "Report
Builder"? I know that "Report Builder" not "Oracle. . ." is a
installed and locked extension that has been a part of LO installs for
months now.
I just checked and the Apache Open Office extensions site is still
calling it Oracle Report Builder, version 1.2.1.
I also checked my LibreOffice 3.6.4.3 "extension" (built-in) and it is
just called "Report Builder" version 1.2.3. So, it appears some
modification to the ORB 1.2.1 has been made to the LO bundled Report
Builder. Maybe I should try it again...
