Crystal format question

[William E Voorhees]

I want the detail section to look like cells of a spreadsheet. When I put
line borders around each field, it is 1.) difficult to line them up and 2.)
the border doesn't print if the field is blank. Is there an easy way to do
this? Thanks.

Hi William,

There might be several better ways to do this, but one way - which I just
tested - was to place an Excel Worksheet, as an ole object (insert ole
object) into the detail section; I then made it one row size and then placed
columns from a table into each of the columns. It lays out pretty nicely,
but I think of it as very much a kludge.

HTH,
