Since we upgraded ORACLE to 6.0.34.2.0 and SQL*Reportwriter to 1.1.13.1 we have a problem with Reportwriter-Fields:

If I create a field with a SQL Statement as source for this field, SQL*Reportwriter allways truncates the last character of the result

e.g

&SQL SELECT 'Text' INTO :TEXT_FIELD FROM dual

     Text Field
     ---------------------
     Tex


I can solve this problem, if I enlarge the text with a blank.

&SQL SELECT 'Text ' INTO :TEXT_FIELD FROM dual

     Text Field
     ---------------------
     Text


Oracle told me, it's a official *bug* in version 1.1.13 and fixed in 1.1.14

I also think that setting the parameter READONLY=NO has no effect. It's always YES. KMH
