@Jim,<br />
OK I applied like that<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-42396124-1">Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
    Dim i As Integer
    For i = 1 To 10
        If Len(Me.Controls(&quot;Patient_Progress_Notes_&quot; &amp; i)) &gt; 0 Or Len(Me.Controls(&quot;Time_&quot; &amp; i)) &gt; 0 Then
            Me.Controls(&quot;line&quot; &amp; i).Visible = True
        Else
            Me.Controls(&quot;line&quot; &amp; i).Visible = False
        End If
    Next
End Sub</code></pre>

Hi Experts,<br />
<br />
I have a report that looks like attached.<br />
<br />
Would like to have a line displayed between the controls horizontally, and since controls can grow, I would like to have the line pushed down accordingly, however when no data which it will cause control to shrink, would like line to be invisible..<br />
<br />
How can I accomplish that?<br />
<br />
(db not in a normalized state, but that's not for now..)<br />

Hi Experts,

I have a report that looks like attached.

Would like to have a line displayed between the controls horizontally, and since controls can grow, I would like to have the line pushed down accordingly, however when no data which it will cause control to shrink, would like line to be invisible..

How can I accomplish that?

(db not in a normalized state, but that's not for now..)

How to have a line between controls that can grow/shrink?
