"Can Grow" Field Issue
I searched for an answer to this problem but have
come up empty handed so far. I have a tabular report wich features X amount of fields, one field (Field 1) will often times need to grow, as it contains a significant amount of data. My problem is that I would like to maintain a clean report and have all of my field outlines have the same height. As of right now Field 1 grows as it is supposed to, but I cannot find a way to make the other fields match the vertical size of Field 1. Any help would be greatly appreciated |

The borders of other controls do not grow when another control grows. You can not even use code to adjust the height of controls to match the tallest control. The best way I know of to deal with this situation is to use the report's Line method to draw the vertical lines in the detail section's Print event (the horizontal lines can be Line controls placed at design time. If you want a ready made solution that takes care of all the tricky issues, download Stephen Lebans PrintLines at www.lebans.com -- Marsh MVP [MS Access] |

"Can Grow" Field Issue
Sorry for what may be a dumb question,,, but I had
actualy already downloaded the PrintLines database from lebans, and I'm not 100% sure how to incorporate it into my database. I have never used Visual Basic before so thats the majority of the problem,, but am I supposed to modify the code to include my own project specific field names, report names, etc,, Once again sorry for the dumb question |
