Khalid-
The Debug.Print statement sends its results to the Immediate Window, which you can open by pressing CTRL+G.
As for Twips, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twip
I'm not undestanding what it is you want. Did you draw horizontal lines in the Detail section? Of course, these lines won't go all the way to the bottom if the data in the Detail section doesn't fill a page. Are you wanting the lines to continue down the page? You could do a lot more experimenting with the Line method, but perhaps an easier way is to design a .jpg that you load as the background to the report. Draw horizontal lines in the graphic the same distance apart as the height of your detail section.

Subject: Re: [MS_AccessPros] Sub reports borders should touch main reports Page footer
John,
That's great! Its perfect. The box is also in bold, wonderful. Thanks alot as you are always with me to resolve the issues and going from start to complete the problem. My boss would really appreciate it.

The Debug statements showed Top = 0, Left = 0, Width = 11518 (8 inches or 20.32 cm), Height = 15120 (10.5 inches or 26.67 cm). The result is a .02 inch border drawn 20 Twips inside the defined width of the report based on the margins.
Where can i see these conversions which you mentioned above and study them?
One more thing can we make this report more robust and have a try on one more thing.
At the detail section around controls i have DRAWN LINES MANUALLY excluding left and right border, and they are moving down along the rows, but if rows are fewer and not touching Page Footer the LINES WHICH I DRAWN aside the controls may move up to Page Footer.
Regards & Thanks once again,
Khalid

Khalid,
Typing "Line Method" into the ask a question box allows you to see information about using the line method including:
"The width of the line drawn depends on the DrawWidth property setting. The way a line or rectangle is drawn on the background depends on the settings of the DrawMode and DrawStyle properties."
If you need more help, you can enter DrawWidth into the search box.
