Excluding One or More Rectangle Edges

By default, Report Builder displays all four edges of a rectangle, but you can exclude one or more edges. This is useful, for example, if you want to print a border above and below a field or group of fields. Also, by turning off all four edges of a rectangle and applying a shading pattern, you can insert borderless shading areas on your report.

Follow these steps to control which edges of a rectangle to include:

  1. Select the rectangle.
  2. Choose Properties Rectangle Properties or double-click the rectangle border. The Rectangle Properties dialog box appears.
  3. Deactivate the Left, Right, Top, or Bottom toggle boxes to choose the sides you want to exclude from the rectangle.
  4. Choose OK to apply the new settings and return to the report layout.
