Access 2007
I have a report that has 2 section headers. Area Header Item Heaer Detail Section Item Footer I have a line in the Item Footer and also a line between records in the detail section for easy viewing of records. Is there a way of NOT printing the line in the detail section when it is the last record. At the moment when I print the report I get two lines when it is the last record - 1 from the detail section and 1 from the Item Footer section. When the Item Footer line prints I don't want the last line in the detail section to print. Hope I've explained this Thanks Al

I expected this reply from you Marsh. I can picture the expression on your
face as you typed. You have brought some form of predictability to my afternoon. THANKS, I needed that ;-) -- Duane Hookom Microsoft Access MVP "Marshall Barton" wrote: Microsoft wrote: Access 2007 I have a report that has 2 section headers.

It's mostly the new job compounded with sitting at my old desk and old
co-workers stopping by with new projects :-( My new boss has new projects. A few breaks (no lunch today) just to check the news groups and get some relief. -- Duane Hookom Microsoft Access MVP "Marshall Barton" wrote: Duane Hookom wrote: I expected this reply from you Marsh.

I'm sure you'll work it out, somehow ;-) But what does an old retired guy like me know ;-)) A few breaks (no lunch today) just to check the news groups and get some relief. Hey, I thought you alreay knew how to post one handed while eating with the other hand. But it's good to hear that you still have your priorities properly sorted ;-)) -- Marsh MVP [MS Access]

because that wouldn't give me what I want.
the line in the detail section does NOT go all the way across the report and is only a thin line. the line in the footer section goes ALL the way across the report and is a much thicker line. I suppose i could get rid of the line in the footer if there is a way to code a change to the length, position and thickness of the LAST line in the detail section........

You can tell when the last detail is being processed with
this kind of arrangement. Add a text box (named txtDtlCnt) to the Item group header section. Set its control source to =Count(*) Add a text box (named txrLine) to the detail section. Set its control source to =1 and RunningSum property to Over Group. Then you can use code in the detail section's Format event procedure to hide the line in the last detail: Me.linDetail.Visible = (txrLine = txtDtlCnt) -- Marsh MVP [MS Access] Microsoft wrote: because that wouldn't give me what I want. the line in the detail section does NOT go all the way across the report and is only a thin line. the line in the footer section goes ALL the way across the report and is a much thicker line.

If the OP wants to hide the last instance of the line, I think the code
should be: Me.linDetail.Visible = (Me.txrLine Me.txtDtlCnt) I prefer to add the "Me." since it is a little less confusing for us more mature guys. -- Duane Hookom Microsoft Access MVP "Marshall Barton" wrote: You can tell when the last detail is being processed with this kind of arrangement.
