Can't "Draw" on Ms. Access FORMS, just reports, so this approach would leave something to be desired -atn least in terms of commonallity of forms / reports and overall apperance.
In terns of the necessity of constant size, I do not see why this wouls be a concern. After all if you "know" the parameters (Left, Top, Height, Width), the drawing is the same. Where I do see an issue is the placement of the drawn shape at the top/bottom of the report. In particular where the addition of the drawn control forces the newpage.
