    I have an upgrade to Sage 100 Standard v2016. When printing Sales Order the lines section is putting the lines right after each other with no spaces. This happens even if in the form I insert some white space. I've never seen this before. There seems to be something that is suppressing extra blank space within the same section. I've looked in section expert and nothing really seems to be unusual. Any thoughts?

    Is the Underlying section box checked?

    Actually, I ran into this once where it wasn't actually using the form I pulled up in designer. I tested by adding another text box and then printing. The text box didn't show up. I think I ended up creating a new form code and then just copying the other form code in on the back end.

    We tried checking/unchecking and it did not seem to make a difference. I think it may be due to the expansion of the field being much larger than what it appears on screen. The way that I ultimately fixed it was to close up all space, insert a blank detail section immediately below. The can grow won't expand into that section and that seems to work.

    Had that thought too - added in a text box ""test"" and the test appears underneath the ""can grow"". However can grow writes over the top of it. There's no 'pushing down' of that field. I am not sure if there was a change in how Crystal treats this or not. Customer came from 4.05 so I'm working through the laundry list of ""why doesn't it work like 4.05"" ....

    Many years ago, when I was, oh SO young, after the 20th question was vocalized in a very whiny voice about why the new version isn't the same as the old version, my inner voice came out and I literally shouted, ""because it's DIFFERENT!"" Hang in there, @WayneSchulz
