printing checks
Janie T 12/17/2008 10:44:00 AM
I need to print business checks. How do I format $2000---------------00/00
so that it will look nice? i.e. When I use the hyphen key to make a line,
there are spaces in the middle; I want a straight unbroken line. And I want
the 00/00 (or xx/xx) to either appear small, or better yet to appear in
subscripts and superscripts below and above that line. Thank you.

This could be complicated - you would need something along the lines of

{ASK Amount Amount}{ =INT({ REF Amount })\# ,$0 }{ EQ
\s\up6(_______________) }{ EQ \s\up4 ({ =MOD({ REF Amount },{ =INT({ REF
Amount }) }) * 100 \# 00}) }/ { EQ \s\do4(00) }

Update the fields to prompt for the amount. You can use the update macro at
http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm attached to a toolbar button for
ease of updating. More that each pair of field brackets {} is inserted with
CTRL+F9
