Extra unwanted lines

edited May 2002 in General
Having a detail band with 3 different rows on (where first row includes a
ppmemo, second a ppSubReport and third a ppDBMemo) doesn't seem to work
correctly! While running the report there's a couple of extra lines added on
to the bottom of the detail band. I've set all 'ShiftRelativeTo'. The only
way to avoid these extra unwanted lines was to manually set the bands height
before running the report (ppDetailBand.Height := 150)!

What is causing this?

I'm using Delphi 5 with all updates,
ReportBuilder 6.03 standard ,
Windows Y2K


Thanks,
Lars.

    Try setting the detail band to static height if you need it to be a specific
    height. The detail band will usually flip to dynamic height when components
    are set to strech or to shift relative to each other. You can also check if
    the DBMemo has a bottom offset which will generate the extra whitespace in a
    dynamically sized detail band.

    The detail band is set to dynamic height since all these components (memo,
    subreport & dbmemo) can vary in height. No bottom offset are set.
    Any more ideas?

    Thanks,

    Can you please send a sample project that reproduces this condition to

    I'm sorry but I have to pass on sending a sample project on this subject. I
    don't really have any time for creating such a project and since I've found
    a work-around It's not that urgent.

    Thanks,
    Lars.
