[AccessD] Report grids

Arthur,

>> You seem to have changed the subject midway from reports to forms. <<

Sorry. Got confused there during my explanation. Thinking aloud on paper, I
guess you could call it. I was also forgetting that each of the "rows" on
the report are not actual rows of data from a 1-M relationship; they're
simply groups of fields in a tabular arrangement. Attribute1, Comment1,
Attribute2, Comment2, Attribute3, Comment3, etc. Somewhat non-normalized,
but the budget is rather small.

>> why not do a Word-automation document with all
the tables in place formatted just so and bookmarks in them to splat the
data into the appropriate columns. I have done this and it's a little
tedious but not difficult. <<

I appreciate your reply. I was kind of expecting it, though. It isn't
something I've ever tried and the budget for the project I'm working on is
rapidly running out. One of the things I tried while puzzling this out was
to place a hairline between the rows of text boxes, hoping that that visual
separator would be enough. I showed the owner of the business two examples
of what I'd been diddling with and he liked the hairline separator better
than the non-growing border around the text boxes. This gives me a few less
headaches as far as getting the dimensions and placement of each border just
right.
