Report Lines - can they be made darker?

Not sure if it's just my printer, but the Lines in  my reports are much fainter than the rest of the text.  Is there a way to make them darker?  I've had no luck with "bold".

Hello Scott,

What you can do is instead of adding a line element in the report designer, add a Static Text element that has the following label

Quote:
<HR NOSHADE WIDTH=100% size=3 COLOR=#000000>


This will create a bolder thicker black line.

Can this be adjusted to create a pair of thinner double lines (as is often seen above Totals)?  Or would I need to program an unbound value box?

Never mind, I got it.  Looks great through HTML.  Drives Print Preview and Immediate batty.

That's because those lines are pure HTML.

Just a note they will not work with the Print Only reports that are available in 2.0
