histogram box, you will see the histogram readout on the plots as "--" and the
histogram will not be displayed. Increase the record length and try again.

- Report remarks/comments: If the remarks/comments are too long,
they might get clipped in the generated report.

- Generated reports can become fragmented during .rtf exporting when
graphics, tables, and result fields close to the right margin are used
in the layout. The default templates provided with this product are
left justified.
