Re: Lost columns in formated text (space delimited) save

I bet that the columns were not the same width as when you tested in October.

I like to use a non-proportional font (Courier New) and then I can see how
things may look--although checking the .prn file using your favorite Text editor
(NotePad???) is still required.

I convert spreadsheets from Excel 2003 to a formatted text (space delimited)
.prn file for use in another program. I last used this function in October 07
without any problems. I tried to do this yesterday and the save did not
maintain the columnar spacing, instead it ran everything together, which made
the data unusable.

I tried doing a program repair from the original CD without any success.
What would cause this?

Thanks, jeff
