I have a crystal 10 report using sql backend with following setup

Group header displays the following:
_______________________________________________________
Matter Type: Commercial Contracts _______________________________________________________

Details section displays the following:
Matter Name: Matter one

Matter Name : Matter Two
________________________________________________________

What I am trying to achieve is to have a line between each of the matter names. I placed the line in the detail sections however this results in the following:

Group header displays the following:
_______________________________________________________
Matter Type: Commercial Contracts _______________________________________________________

Details section displays the following:
Matter Name: Matter one
_______________________________________________________
Matter Name : Matter Two
_______________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________

How can I get it where there is not a double line between the group header and details and only a line between each matter name in the details? Btw, this report is grouped by Matter Type.

Thank you.
 
Add the line to a details_b section and then format that same section in the section expert->suppress->x+2 with:

{table.mattertype} <> next({table.mattertype})

This will suppress the last detail_b before a group header. Do NOT check "suppress" before entering the x+2 formula. Just enter the formula.
