Don't know.  Are you using Clarion or ABC templates?  In ABC
templates, open ABUpdate.tpw, locate line 394, which should look like:

  %Window{Prop:Text} = %Window{Prop:Text} & '  (' & %ValueConstruct & ')'

and change it to:

  %Window{Prop:Text} = %Window{Prop:Text} & '  (' & Clip(%ValueConstruct) & ')'

Think that should be all to it...

Best regards,
