Field borders

[Silhouette]

I have a layout for a quotations form with several repeating fields. In FM 6 I formatted those fields to have a border around each of the repeating fields. In FM 7 the borders do not show up unless I put data in that repitition of the repeating field. It appears that the only the side borders show up but either the top border shows above the repitition with data in it or the bottom border from the rep above the rep with data.

Summary - not all of the borders show up even after I tell them to in the Layout Format menu.

I rarely use repeating fields so I have no definitive suggestions. However I'd start by making sure you are using FMP 7.0v3 -- the patch is available free from the FileMaker web site.

Has the repeating field been formatted with Sliding/Printing?

Hi,

I never print repeating fields myself, but 7 allows to separate repeats. Did you tried this way to see if that change things ?

Thanks for the reply. I am using 7.0v3. I am not using sliding/printing on that field. It seems very strange given that field borders have always been very straight forward and easy to apply.
