Hi, we're using a HTML composed report with the code below. When I run it from the Developer Studio it looks 'fine': the columns from the second and third table are having the same width, so everything looks aligned. Also, the styling is just as expected from the stylesheet.

Now when I use the same script as an inline message sent from the ReportCaster, the columns from both tables don't align with each other anymore. Also the first table has a correct styling, the second has not, the third also has a correct styling, but on-and-on the fourth has not.

How can I get the same output as an inline message compared with the output from Developer Studio?

SET COMPONENT=Table_1
-INCLUDE app/080808fa
SET COMPONENT=Table_2
-INCLUDE app/080808fb
SET COMPONENT=Table_3
-INCLUDE app/151102wa
SET COMPONENT=Table_4
-INCLUDE app/080808fc

Could there be a stylesheet with the same name somewhere in the path? It sounds like the report caster run is looking at a different sty than when you run it live. I'd turn on ECHO=ALL and see if the reports are running the exact same code. Another way to narrow the problem down is to copy the desired sty into a totally unique name and see if you still have the same issue.

SWES,

You might want to issue the APP SHOWPATH as well and see what the path is for Report Caster.
Can you run the same FEX as you do in Dev Studio from within Report Caster ( not as inline code) and see if there is a difference this way ?

Keep us informed of your situation or if this has been resolved.

Thank you for participating in the Focal Point Forum.

Kindest regards,
