vertical lines in detail section of report.

L

I have the following problem:

In my detail section I have a memo field for which
the can grow can shrink properties are both set to True.

I also need to draw verical lines in that detail section
and they always have to be of a fixed length (2.80 inches
high). The report is fine as long as I have one record in
my detail section. The moment I have a 2nd record. The
height of the vertical lines get doubled.

This is what I have in the detail section of the onformat
event:
Me!Line1.Height = 4020
Me!Line2.Height = 4020
Me!Line3.Height = 4020
Me!Line4.Height = 4020
Me!Line5.Height = 4020
Me!Line6.Height = 4020
Me!Line7.Height = 4020

Can anyone see what is missing here? - TIA.
