Print single box for entire band

edited 10:42PM in FastReport 4.0
Looking for help or advice in how to print a box that would span the entire height (including multiple pages) of a MasterData band.

In other words, we have data that gets output in rows that takes up about half the page width. The other half should have a box for writing notes, and this box should be equal to the height of the rows. And if the rows span multiple pages, there should be multiple boxes, one on each page.

I know I can get a rectangle with the shape object, but adding this to the band repeats the frame, which is not what we're looking for.

I've tried to work around this by using a Header with a bottom frame, left and right frames in the band, and Footer with a top frame. But the footer only gets output after all the data, and we need that on each page.

Has anyone done anything similar?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Try to set bottom and top frames for last and first data band

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
