Hi,

Can you be a little bit more descriptive with the problem? What kind of object are you using to display the variable?

Progress has a limit to the width of a frame.

If you need to display anything more than three hundred and something then you would be better off using the PUT UNFORMATTED statement.

As an example:

Code:
DEF VAR cline AS CHARACTER NO-UNDO.
 
ASSIGN cline = ""
           SUBSTRING (cline,1) = "Column 1"
           SUBSTRING (cline,10) = "Column 2"
           SUBSTRING (cline,100) = "Column 3"
           SUBSTRING (cline,200) = "Column 4"
           SUBSTRING (cline,300) = "Column 5"
           SUBSTRING (cline,400) = "Column 6"
           SUBSTRING (cline,500) = "Column 7".
OUTPUT TO c:\scratchdata\cline.txt.
PUT UNFORMATTED cline skip.
OUTPUT CLOSE.
