Drawing vertical lines in page footer section

I'm using the Line method to draw vertical lines around my report. Depending
on where the page break occurs, there may be some "white" space between the
last detail lines that print on the report and the top of the page footer
section; as a result there is a gap between the end of the lines in the
detail section and the top of the lines in the page footer section. What's a
good way to "extend" the vertical lines down to the beginning of the page
footer section?

Thanks for any assistance,

Carl Rapson

Carl, rather than trying to fill the gap, how about drawing those line with
code in the Page event of the report?

This kind of thing:

Private Sub Report_Page()
Me.Line (Me.ScaleTop, Me.ScaleLeft)-(Me.ScaleTop, Me.ScaleHeight), vbRed
End Sub
