[AccessD] Drawing verticle line in the detail section of a report

I'm just getting ready to solve this problem on a report that has 4 'can
grow' subreports on it.  And I need a vertical line from top to bottom of
the section.  There are two section events I'm going to try - OnFormat and
OnPrint.  I'll draw a vertical line where I want it - but only as high as
the design height of the section, obviously.  And then set the height of
that line in one of those events.

I think by the time you get to OnPrint the section height is already maxed
out - but I'm not sure you can set the Height property of a line at that
tie.  I know you can do it in the OnFormat event, but I'm not sure the
section height is at its maximum at that time.  

So it'll take a little experimenting.  If you find out anything let us know.
Otherwise I'll post my solution if I find one.

BTW, the height if the section and/or the line has to be expressed in twips.
1440 twips = 1 inch.

Regards,

Rocky

Subject: [AccessD] Drawing verticle line in the detail section of a report

Good Evening Everyone,
 
I have several verticle lines in the detail section of an access report. 
However I have an issue when the detail section expands and the lines do
not. 
 
Does anyone have some code that will adjust the height of the lines based on
the height of the detail section of the report?
 
Thanks!~
 
Dale
