Visual FoxPro s Report Designer can t do what you need? Turn to Word instead. Its document orientation provides formatting from fonts to outlining.

Microsoft Word is an incredibly powerful word processor. It lets users create documents ranging from simple memos to complex multi-part corporate reports. It also provides tools for processing and managing those documents in a number of ways, such as checking spelling and grammar, merging with a variety of data sources, tracking changes, and much more.

Even for simple documents, Word provides myriad tools that allow users to produce attractive output. Users can work with multiple documents simultaneously, move and copy text within and between documents, and mark and name portions of a document. Formatting in Word is also quite powerful, with provision for local, page-level, and document-level control.
