access thread: dynamic vertical "line" in a report


Message #1 by a9603897@u... on Tue, 17 Jul 2001 11:39:08
Hello,



Is it possible to insert a dynamic line into a report, so that the line 

has always the height of the "dynamic" textbox?



I want to make following thing:



I have a report in access. This report contains a textbox which changes 

the size depending on how long the text is. On the right side of the 

textbox is a vertical line. I want now, that the line is changing the 

height, depending on which scale the textbox has.



Is this possible?



Thank you for every hint!



Chris

It is indeed possible, but it's way more of a pain in the tuchus than it

should be, IMHO.  Stephen Lebans has generously made some sample code

available at his web site www.lebans.com (look for the file PrintLines.zip

in the files & tips section).



HTH,
