Some Options Not Fully Displayed in RQBE List Boxes

The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, version 3.0
  • Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5 and 2.5a
  • Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, versions 2.0, 2.5, and 2.5a

Some list boxes in the Relational Query By Example (RQBE) Expression Builder are too narrow to completely display options that are the maximum length, for example, ALIASNME.FIELD_NAME.

The Group By Fields list in the Group By dialog box will not display the entire option name if the name of the table is the maximum eight characters and the name of the field is the maximum ten characters.

This problem also occurs with the Selected Output list box in the Select Fields dialog box and the Field Name list box in the Having dialog box.
