Forcing receipt to use 2 lines

All of these changes are in the PrintTransactionDetails Sub. To get what you want you are going to have to combine the first two columns Item and Description into one column. Change this:

"<~" PageWidth * 0.29 "Item" "<" PageWidth * 0.42 "Description" ">~" PageWidth * 0.29 "Amount"

"================|=========================|=================" To this:

"<~" PageWidth * 0.71 "Item Description" ">~" PageWidth * 0.29 "Amount"

"=========================================|================="

Then make sure there is only one "|" in each row in the TransactionDetail section. For instance this line of code: "|Discount|" Entry.ExtendedDiscountNegative Should be changed to: "Discount|" Entry.ExtendedDiscountNegative There several lines of code that need to changed.

Lastly modify this line of code: Entry.Item.ItemLookupCode "|" Entry.Description "|" Entry.ExtendedFullPrice and make it look like this: Entry.Item.ItemLookupCode "|" Entry.ExtendedFullPrice Entry.Description "|" Entry.ExtendedFullPrice There are two places in the TransactionDetails section that this code should be changed to ensure your receipt displays the format you want.

Thanks Rob, that did it. There was a slash or two missing in your code (malformed XML), so i am posting the updated version of your advice here for future reference:
