We a Visual FoxPro application that currently runs on machines with Windows 7. We are building the application with Visual FoxPro 9.0 Service Pack 2. We are looking at running this application on a Windows 2012 Server with RDS. The one problem I have run into is running our reports. For the currency values that are printed on the reports they almost always show up as asterisks. Also, several non-numeric fields have the last character cut off. We are currently setting the REPORTBEHAVIOR to 80. We have over 100 reports and therefore it is not possible to extend the length of all the fields in every report. Before I tell my boss that we cannot use Windows 2012 Server I would like to do my due diligence to see if there is some setting or something that would fix this problem.
First of all, is this a GDI Plus vs. GDI problem?
Secondly, can anybody give help me figure out how to fix this problem? I have searched the internet but cannot find anybody that has run into this specific problem.
This may be too simplistic, but is there a chance that the reports are set to use a default font and the default fonts used by the Server 2012 are different and are thus altering the spacing and size of your report fields?
