How can I evenly align subreports vertically?

I have a report that included several subreports. It takes a lot of trial & error to get each new subreport aligned vertically so that the line spacing is even between each subreport and equal to that in the multiple lines of the other subreports. Is there a way to evenly space the subreports in relation to each other the way that fields in a form can be evenly aligned as a group?

Thanks,

Shin
 
just highlight the subreports you want aligned the same, then right click and click on the Align option.

Thanks for the reply. I've tried this and it aligns the subreports nicely, but doesn't create the same line spacing as the lines in the linereports that each subreport creates.

1. Is there a way to adjust the line spacing in linereports that each subreport creates?

2. I can't align subreports so that the reports are less than about 2 lines apart -> effectively, doublespacing between the subreports.

What I want to do is align subreports and linereports (within each subreport) for single-spacing, or 1.5 line spacing at the most. Can this be done?

What I get looks sort of like this?

Subreport1, Line1

Subreport1, Line2

Subreport 1, Line3


Subreport 2, Line 1

Subreport 2, Line 2, etc

What I want it to look like is:

Subreport1, Line1
Subreport1, Line2
Subreport 1, Line3
Subreport 2, Line 1
Subreport 2, Line 2, etc

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Shin
