Borders for whole page

rbuser

RB Pro v10.02
I have an invoice report with typical header-footer info and columns for
quantity, price, item and amount.
Many of the invoices are 1 or 2 liners. Client was used to having this
printed on pre-printed stationery in the old DOS version of the application
(dot matrix printing). Now they would like to simulate the old look by
having vertical columns separating the data columns and have them go to the
bottom of the page. Currently, I am using right/left borders for the cells
but of course these do not go to the bottom of the page.

What is the best way to do this? Watermark or other? Please point me to
sample source.

Add a PageStyle band to the report. A PageStyle prints as a background layer
on the page. You can add a PagesStyle band by selecting Report | PageStyle
from the report designer menu.

Thanks.
Are there any tips you can give to help me with alignment of this grid with
the Detail columns?
I can handle left/width but for Top, I have to use trial and error because I
don't know where the header etc push the detail band down to.

I do not understand the question. I was thinking that you could put the
graphical elements in the PageStyle - this would define the lines for the
grid. Then the detail band would generate the data over the top.
