Control height on a report

[rwr]

In the section header of a report I have a TextBox that
is set to Can Grow. I also have several labels on the
same line. I want the label height to be the same
height as the TextBox when it grows. All of the controls
have a border around them. I want the report to look like
a grid and can’t get any of the events to work.


TIA
Ron

Using the border to create a grid won't work because of the
can grow issue. You need to use the Line method in the
section's Print event to draw the lines. You might prefer
to use the PrintLines procedures at www.lebans.com It
deals with all the complexities of crossing page boundaries,
etc.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.
