Set all fields in a row to "grow"

[kimmer7389]

I have a report that has 6 fields in each row. I have borders set on all of the fields. The report is actually a checklist and I need to have the borders on each field. The problem is when one of the fields grow (expands) the other fields do not. The other fields are set to grow and I have tried grouping the fields and nothing seems to be working. Is it possbile to set all the fields to grow together? Please help.

You can't get them to all grow equal. You can use the line method in the On Print event of the section containing the controls. There is an example of this in the calendar report at

That was kinda what I was looking for. However that isn't going to work for me. My field widths are all different. I did find a solution here though:

Kimmer7389,
I didn't expect your controls to all be the same width. I only wanted to point you to a solution that determined the tallest control so you would know how to draw the lines in the report. I'm glad you have this working.
