Glyn Derby Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Ive been using webfocus for 20 years, I liked it, and now WF 8 has come along Im exasperated. ztemp.JPG1871138 22.2 KB I gave up with freezing headers in WF7 because the alignment wasnt great, I would like to use it. In WF8 I cant turn it off, sounds like good thing maybe. But now the squeeze doesnt work! If the image has uploaded youll see a super wide column with 4 characters in it. There are many more columns to the right which contain ONLY small values with 3 decimal places which are just as wide - any ideas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Yergeau Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Could have several reasons. The first one that I am thinking of is that your Location field is displaying a very large value somewhere in your report. But since we dont know your data and style sheet used, difficult to tell Which format is this report : HTML, PDF, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glyn Derby Posted December 21, 2021 Author Share Posted December 21, 2021 Thanks MartinY, but its not that. Its HTML format. Here is another column in the report a 3 character dayname. Seems as soon as you put the HFREEZE=TOP, you get the opposite of SQUEEZE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Yergeau Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Which version are you with Can you share your code and master file definition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glyn Derby Posted December 21, 2021 Author Share Posted December 21, 2021 V8207 this is code written to run with version 7 in notepad (is there something else I need to include ahead of the freeze)- I cant share the code with you unfortunately but here is a slice of the same report WITHOUT the freeze on (the headings are just off the top of the clip) it fits on the screen - no masterfile changes, no code changes, I just removed the HFREEZE command. image.png189789 6.78 KB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Yergeau Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Unfortunately, without that ability to see your code and master file definition I think that the only solution that left to you is to open a case with TechSupport. We cant help you not seeing that. Sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rene Nunnington 2 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Does your report have autofit on That will make the report as large as the frame, regardless of what is in the columns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Yergeau Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Do you have a specific seting for SET SHOWBLANKS The default is OFF, if you have it to ON, it may also explain the issue image.png705174 51.5 KB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
