Extend to Bottom of Section when Printing Issue

Hi all,

I'm using CR XI with CR Enterprise Server XI. Database is Teradata.

I have a simple list report with a RH, PH, D, Suppressed RF and a PF section.

I have a text box around the objects in my detail section. And vertical lines between each object (output looks like a grid).

I have selected the Extend to Bottom of Section when Printing option on the text box and on all the vertical lines. These are set because one of the output objects has the Can Grow option on with no line limit.

Problem is this... Three or four pages print and everything is fine. The can grow box expands and contracts vertically as needed. And the vertical lines and text box expand and contract as needed. Eventually an output line is encountered by CR that is not going to fit entirely on the last line of a page because the Can Grow fields is too big. CR does what it should - moves the detail row to the top of the next page. The problem is the vertical lines and the text box extend on the previous page to the bottom of the page making it look like a blank detail row exists. Its like CR is forgetting to end the vertical lines and text box immediately after the last detail row when having to shift a detail row to a new page.

Anyone encountered this?
Anyone have a workaround?

Thanks in advance.
