Default Print a horizontal line at the bottom of a report?

I am trying to format a report, to look like an excel spreadsheet - with a
"matrix" look to it. The report prints fine with the column data encased in
lines and the row data similarly encased...except for the last row on every
page - the bottom line will not print. Any suggestions?

What did you do to get the line under the other details?

If you used a line control at the top of the detail section,
then try moving it to the bottom and addimg another Line
control to the bottom of the Page header section to deal
with the first detail on each page.

Marshall:

Many thanks for your consideration. It turns out it wasn't that
complicated...I had read some other info the the knowledge base that
addressed format height of headers and footers - so I formated the detail
section height from what it was (0.25") to 0.26". The rport defaulted to
..2597" and the line apperaed at the bottom just like I wanted.
