I've got a problem with OIPI reports in 7.1 that use ADDTABLE with right justified columns. Apparently, if the column width exceeds some value (not sure what determines this), then the column extends beyond the right end of the page and the right justified is not shown.

For example, this occurs with the following code
	colwidth=1.901 ;* inches
	call set_printer( 'INIT','','','','', 4)
	call set_printer( 'ADDTABLE', '~]': (colwidth * 1440), '', 'data', '', 13421772)
	call set_printer( 'TERM')
If colwidth is changed to 1.9, the data prints as expected.

It all works OK in OI 4.1.3. Is this a known problem?

Matt,

Using your code, I cannot seem to duplicate your problem. Did you try calling the addtable like:

rv=set_printer( 'ADDTABLE', '~]': (colwidth * 1440), , 'data', , 13421772)

…and seeing if (rv) gives you any clues?

Also, I see you are at 7.1 from 4.1.3. Did you update straight to 7.1 or did you update in steps?

Hi Frank,

Thanks for testing that. The return values are '1' for each set_printer call. But trying the next most obvious thing - turning UTF8 mode OFF - fixes it. So it apparently is specific to UTF8 mode being ON as well.

Cheers, M@

This is corrected and will be in 7.1.1.
