Overflow Leader outside Subform border

[Former Community Member]

Hi,

I have a form with the following hierarchy

> Header

> Subform [With border]

> > Subform bound to datasource with repeating rows

I also have another subform, which I use as an Overflow Leader, if a Page break occurs

This works fine, except if there is a page break, on the new page this displays as:

> Subform [With border]

> Over flow Header

> > Subform bound to datasource with repeating rows

i.e. the overflow header is inside the border, when I want it to be outside the border, so it looks like a header.

The client is pretty clear with the border - they ONLY want it around the entire set of rows for the Subform, not between each row item.

As I write this - I am thinking of a possible solution.

- Remove the border around the containing subform

- On the repeating row have some script that does:

     - If this is the first row, add a border at the top

     - If this is the last row, add a border at the bottom.

I'll see if I can get it working, and report back :-)

OK - my idea "kind of" worked.

Here is the full solution:

So now the structure is:

> Header (with a border at the bottom)

> Subform (with only a border at the bottom

> > Subform bound to datasource with repeating rows, with border on Left and right

The overflow leader has a line at the base of the subform (a border did not work - it got "lost")

So now the "Table" has a border, and if it overflows, it looks like a new table on the next page.  Great!
