border line not displaying properly

hi,

when i preview a report in report manager, i am not able to view borderline (right side), but when i take a print out, it is printing properly all the border lines.

i am uisng a subreport and placing it in a table.when subreport width is smaller than the cell it is placed in, the border line on right side is not displaying but in print it is displaying

with regards

I wasn't able to duplicate this behavior. I created a 2" wide subreport with a simple textbox on it. I then created a parent report with a simple 1 row table and placed the subreport in the middle, 3" wide cell. The right-side borders showed up in Report Manager regardless of whether I placed the borders on the table cell or on the subreport body.

Would you mind opening an issue via the below url and attaching your reports so I can take a look?

I have a similar problem, although it doesn't involve a SubReport.

I have a table with about 8 columns. For 1 row in the table, I want several of the rows to be underlined - which was handled by setting the border property of the TextBoxes. The data was underlined until I entered formulas/expressions to 3 of the Text Boxes. Now, the boxes with expressions do not show the underlines when the report is displayed, but the underlines do show up on the printed report. Text boxes without expressions are fine.

If you would send a sample report (preferably one that goes against one of our sample databases) to the above URL, we'll take a look.

Thanks, Donovan.

Sorry, can't provide a sample.

I will provide a little more info. I tried removing the expressions from the boxes that did not have a border - the border did not come back.

In one row, I have 8 columns. I set the bottom border to 1Pt. Solid for 7 of the text boxes. The border displayed for 4 of the 7 text boxes.

I resolved my problem by setting the top border of the row below to 1 Pt. Solid. I did this for all 7 columns. The report now displays and prints fine.

I believe, but can't prove, that the top border is displaying for 3 columns and the bottom border is displaying for the other 4 columns.

I am pretty sure that the bottom border originally displayed for all 7 columns when I began the report design. I think the border disappeared when I added the expressions - but I can't say that this is absolutely correct.
