Thanks for the reply Claudine.

Finally, after experimenting, I think the problem is *Greek capital letters in text objects* and their relation with DOS lines. If the choice is "Yes" (convert to blanks), Greek capital letters in text objects converts to blanks. So the choices are: 1. Use text objects with Greek Capital letters and live with the convert message. 2. Use text variables instead of text objects, but more difficult to manipulate. I think choice 1 is better. If I'm right this problem must be present to other languages too. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > On Behalf Of ELOEN > Sent: Monday, October 14, 2002 1:53 AM > To: Rbase List Server > Subject: report designer's conversion message > > Rbwin version > > New database, with 1 report.
