Image that resizes as a border?

edited December 2003 in General
I have a report that I want to put a .wmf clipart border around each group.
The group adjusted accordingly to how many items are in it, and I cannot
figure out how to get the image to stretch to that height. I have tried
everything that I could think of. Any ideas?

    Hi Douglas,

    For an image to act as a border around a group, it would need to stretch
    across each detail band in each group. This is not possible using a single
    image inside the detail band. Two approaches to this problem might be:

    1. Cut your image into four peices, top, bottom, left and right, placing
    the top in the group header, bottom in the group footer and a left and right
    image in the detail band.

    2. In the TppGroupFooterBand.AfterPrint, find out the height of the group.
    Then using the PageStyle, stretch your image to that size and location.
