Hi,
I have a tabular type report and I made the memo control draw lines but I also want to make these lines drawn to the page footer even if there is no data to print, how I can do that ?

Thanks

    the easiest method is to draw the lines in an overlay band.
    TIP set your designer to large height in design mode,
    after all your other bands add an overlay band with large vertical height.
    in the overlay add your lines, the top of the overlay band corresponds to the top of the page

    thanks gordk, It was hard to adjust because first page has a title but it work. I was thinking, I cant use stretchable detail band that contain the vertical lines ? I tried but did not work, maybe I am missing something.

    when the detailbands are stretchable you must use a different approach.
    use an unattached childband and empty memos that duplicate the detail band.
    you then write code in the obp event of the detail footer to check the amount of freespace and
    and call the engine.showband(bandname) method.
