Drawing lines in reports

[Mauricio Silva]

Hi there,

I am trying to find a way to draw vertical lines in my report. So far, the
object line has beed working great until I turn on the property CanGrow, the
object line does not grow my the detail section.

I tried a few examples I saw in the discussion group and none have worked.
My last try (a rectangle) was this command at the OnPrint event:

Me.Line (0, 0)-Step(Me.Width, Me.Section(0).Height), , B

and again, it won't grow with the section. So my question is: How can I
verify the heigth of a section?

I know I could just draw the line thru the entire report, but I didn't want
to draw it over the headers or footers.

Thanks for any help

The Height prop returned from Me.Section(acDetail) is the original
design time value. To access the current Section height value in a
CanGrow/Shrink situation use Me.Height instead.

Thank you Stephen,

so far, the change I had tried for this option was Detail.height that was
returning the design time height. Thank you very much for this ..
