it is a known problem with certain fonts/sizes and sometimes the field will
autosize and just miss off the start/end of the label caption depending upon
what fonts are used. If you use the assign to size the label then you can
size the label exactly by using the sysmetric() settings  for the font you
are using.

Rafael,

Not tested
    Define Class baseLabel as Label
    Procedure Caption_Assign
      LParameters cValue
      If This.AutoSize = .T.
         This.AutoSize = .F.
         This.Caption = cValue
         This.AutoSize = .T.
      Else
         This.Caption = cValue
      EndIf
    EndProc
    EndDefine

I would gather that would be the structure of the method he created. 

HTH,
