report

[Guest]

How do I turn off the border around combo box feilds in a report. I have
tried setting it to transparent, setting it to solid with color equal white.
Every signal time though I have a few combo boxes that print out with a black
border. The only other thing I know to try at this time is to draw a white
line around my boxes. Any help with this would be great! - Thanks all

Combos on a report are not very useful.

You can't drop them down, so presumably you are using this to get the value
from a lookup table. Instead of using a combo, use a query as the source for
the report, and add the lookup table to the query. You will then be able to
show the field that contains the lookup text, and you don't need the combo.

If the combo's field is not required, you will need to use an outer join in
your query. More info in:
