When printing a Report, I have a listbox that i would like to have no lines around. I have changed the property settings, but when printing the lines still show. Is there anyway to get rid of these?....

Change the property Border Style to Transparent. This will eliminate the lines are the list box and the items within the box.

scriver...thanks for the quick feedback...but unfortunetly i have changed this already and it works under a form, but not for a report. I have a list box in a form..and it seems to be ok with no line around that...but when putting it in a report..it is impossible to get rid of this stinking line....argghhhh who wants a line around a list box anyway ;).

I now see that that doesn't work. I tested it but only with Print Preview. But, when it actually prints in puts in the lines. I also tried to change the border color to white and that didn't seems to work either. I will keep trying and let you know.

scriverb...thanks again for trying. Actually I've since worked around the problem. Instead of using ListBoxes in the Report I used the DLookUp command in a textbox. not sure why i didnt do that to begin with. thanks for the help!
