Hi Everyone,
 
and thanks in advance for any help possible!
 
This is a weird one....
 
we're trying to format a report. We have a block of text (multi-lines) and we wish to underline every line of the text such that the lines extend to the full width of the cell and end evenly at the right hand side.
 
We're researching ways to either break up the text in the query OR to format the underline property so that it extends PAST the last line of text to teh end of the cell.
 
The desired look would be similar to what it would look like if the text was written out on a pad of LINED PAPER.
 
So far we are confounded. Again, thanks in advance for any help.
 
John.

Place the field in a text box and use the underline to extend it as far as you want but make the text box only as wide as your cell.
