Report printing in Access

[Snowleopard]

Does anyone know how I can control the spacing between the detail lines on
an Access report? - The information itself prints out fine, but looks like
it's double-spaced or something. How can I reduce the amount of white space
between lines of data?

Thanks.

Not sure from your description but try adjusting the height of the Detail
section of the Report.

In a Report, you normally have the Report Header/Footer (printed once for
each Report), Page Header/Footer (printed once for each page), Group
Header/Footer (printed once for each group) and the Detail section which is
printed once for *each* row/Record in the RecordSource and the Detail
section height controls the space between each row/Record. Thus, you need
to reduce the height of the Detail section.

The minimum I can set the "Detail" height property to seems to be 0.2083"
(maybe because of my font size?). I have no problem with the rows of detail
content themselves - just the space between these detail lines, i.e., the
white space between the records. The space between my detail lines looks
bigger than the text on each detail line. Think of using an old typewriter
to "double-space" your record lines. Any suggestions?

Have you tried moving the header down closer to the detail lines or the footer up closer to them?

Yes, I've positioned everything as close to the details lines as I could!
Any more ideas??

Oh! I got it - the boxes of the data fields in the detail line were too
"fat".
