I needed to display field values in the Print header. So I used the ‘Window Title’ area with adding field names to it and using the Title (&W) in the print header.But the problem now I’m having is the header is showing the field values on the first line only. The content does not display in the second or multiple lines.
could anyone sort this out for me please!

I wouldn’t expect the window title to occupy multiple lines. Look at the title bar of any window. How many lines of text are in it?
Are you saying you used @Newline in the window title formula to try and get it to occupy multiple lines in the print header?
@Newline is the same as @Char(0), which is treated as a string terminator by code that’s not expecting newlines. Try @Char(10) or @Char(13) instead – that might do what you’re trying for.
Please let us know whether it works.

Tried the @Char(10) and @Char(13) in the Window title but it is still not working. it shows an alien character in the print header when i use the @Char() functions. below is the code which i have used.
@If(@IsNewDoc; “Draft”; "Part Number: “+fldGRDNo+@Char(10)+” Description: “+fldGrdDescription+@Char(10)+” Date Issued: “+@Text(fldDateIssued)+@Char(10)+” Version: “+fldVersion+@Char(10)+” Category: "+fldCategory)

Andre made no promises, he just suggested something to try. The fact of the matter is that the window title is NOT intended to span multiple lines, and probably cannot do so. The chances are actually pretty good that the ability to span multiple lines is intentionally disallowed in order to remove the possibility that important details are always visible in the window title.
