let me explain.

my detailed report wants to report on a repair/cost that has up 44 possible variations.

i dont want to show as line1
line2
line3....
line44
because not all of the lines will actually contain data.

so my question is, how do i fomat (i will use code if needed) to have the detail show as:

line1
line5
line20

or any combination up to 44 lines (highly unlikely).
i want it to break when only the rows that had data are printed.
do i need to put the data into an array so it becomes contiguous.

thanks

 
here is the answer to my own question..

can shrink/can grow properties on the fields and the detail section.

(new57 smacks himself upside the head for not doing a more thorough search before asking the question) :)))
