I am using HyperCard 1.2.5. Thanks for any help. This same problem sidetracked me for a few days... In my case, the problem was that I had reset the default application font to something other than Geneva, I think Palatino. Palatino is a proportional font, so the nice rows and columns in the Hypercard calendar didn't line up anymore. I would try this. Open the Calendar, select the field tool, and then set the font in each of the "out of place" fields to Geneva, Monaco, Courier, or some other _non-proportional_ font. This should clear it up BTW, I'm assuming that by "out of place" you mean something like this: right: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 "out of place": 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 <chaz> -- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ "Must think...bubble pipe will relax me and I think..." - Flaming Carrot clarson@ux.acs.umn.edu AOL:Crowbone

Our problem is that we've got different macs (from pluses to a CI) that run different system versions. We've found that what looks good under 6.0.2 looks all messed up under 6.0.3. The 6.0.2 was a plus and the 6.0.3 machine was a SE/30. We couldn't find a good solution for this discrepancy, so anything we distrubute which contains overlaying fields is really an imported screen dump. What this all boils down to is that you may have to get in there and move the field(s) with the dates on it/them so it looks OK on your machine.
