Problem with Subreport formatting 1

[glthornton]

Hi everyone,
I'm using CR XI on a Win XP Pro machine. I am having problems with some pages not fully showing the complete subreport information. I'm creating a single page containing all the medications a patient is currently taking. The main report contains just a list of patients, grouped by a Patient ID (PatID) which is like a Medical Record Number (MRN). On the subreport, I am showing all current medications for a specific Patient ID (PatID) grouped by Patid (Group Header #1) and then by the drugname (Group Header #2). I have lines on the top and sides of the fields to parse out the data. I have my final bottom line placed in the Report Footer. In the Section Expert of the main report, I have a "New Page" occur after each PatID which is working just fine.

So what is not working all the time is that the line that I'm drawing at the bottom of the medication list is not always showing. It does work on the majority of my pages, about 95% of the time. But for some reason, it's not working consistantly on all of my pages. Does anyone have any ideas as to how to fix this?

Thank you,
GlThornton

Lines are sometimes funny within subreports, especially if its the last object to be printed.

Try using a text box, spreading this the width of the canvas and making the height smaller. Then put a border on the bottom line, if this still doesn't always display try putting the line on the top and some white coloured text in the text box and this should solve it.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for a different perspective. The line on the top method worked great.

Thank you,
