Status: Unverified
SYMPTOM(s):
Generating report with 4GL
Unwanted SKIP's in a frame
Column alignment problem
CAUSE:
Extract from documentation:
If you specify STREAM-IO for a frame, the USE-TEXT option is assumed and all font specifications are ignored. The frame is formatted using a fixed font in a manner appropriate for streaming to a text file or printer. In particular, all border padding for FILL-IN widgets is dropped and the default system font is used.
If you use the STREAM-IO option on the COMPILE statement, this behavior is the default for all frames in the procedure. In this case, you can override that option by specifying SCREEN-IO for an individual frame.
FIX:
Use the frame phrase option STREAM-IO
