In this Microsoft Access tutorial, I will show you how to neatly insert vertical lines in report columns for a more organized and easier-to-read layout.

Elena from Grapevine, Texas (a Platinum Member) asks: How do I add straight vertical lines in my Access report to separate the columns? It looks kind of messy without them, and I want to make it easier to read. Can you show me a simple way to do this?

Silver Members & up get access to an Extended Cut of this video. In the extended cut, I will show you how to adjust the height of lines in an Access report using VBA code to accommodate variable amounts of text in the detail section. This solves the issue of fixed height lines when you have entries that change in size due to the can grow property.
