*** old question **
I am using RB v 4.21 Pro. I am creating an invoice with a header,
detail,
and footer bands. I am grouping on a particular key that keeps the
detail
items associated with the correct client in the header. My detail can
consist of upto 24 items. Currently I am placing vertical lines before
and
after items that print in the detail so that it show columns when it
is
printing out the detail. eg.
header
| xxxxx | xxxxx | xxxxx |
| xxxxx | xxxxx | xxxxx |
__________________
footer
The problem that I am having is that I need the vert. lines to
continue
printing all the way to the footer even if there is no more detail for
that
group. eg
header
| xxxxx | xxxxx | xxxxx |
| xxxxx | xxxxx | xxxxx |
| | | |

You can download a demo of page length lines from:

You should be able to use this technique, or a variation of it, to
create
the lines for your invoice...

The following example produces a similar result. It manually adds line
drawcommands to achieve this. One other option is to add lines to the
PageStyle band of the report which will print behind all report components.
Activate the PageStyle using the Report menu option in the designer.
