draw boxes around a text box

[Patty]

I am replicating a report one of our clients prefer us to use. On
their report there are boxes around each individual item. I know I can
go to properties in a text box and put a borders around it and allow it
to grow according to the data it draws into the field. Is there a
different command or code that will allow a draw box around a text box
to grow?

A text box's Height property contains its CanGrow Height in
the section's Print event so you can use the Line method to
do that.

You didn't explain what the goal of this is, but you might
want to look into the PrintLines example at www.lebans.com
