    Hi Fran,

    In the DetailBand.AfterPrint you should be able to determine the height of
    the detail band just printed. I am confused about what you are ultimately
    trying to accomplish. There may be a better way to go about it. Please
    provide more information about your final goal and I'll see if I can give
    you the best approach to use.

    I want to print 7 details bands in each page.
    Each detail band has one image and one rich text, also the band has a
    rectangular shape like a frame for the band.

    Each band can has a different height. I want to split the blank space below
    the data and the page footer into the bands of the page.

    Hi Fran,

    If I understand correctly, you want a total of seven bands per page. If
    there are not seven bands, you would like to fill the rest of the page with
    empty detail bands. Check out the following examples on adding drawcommands
    to the bottom of the detail band data and calculating the height of the
    detail band to place line at the bottom of it. If I'm on the wrong track
    with what your trying to do, let me know.
