I have a customer that would like to have a text area box filled with lines under the text regardless if there is data or not.

The box is a subsection, and should have like 3 lines, but possibly only one line of text. Would be able to function either way below. How do others do this other than determining string length for each line?

You can either draw them in by using the "Insert Line"button in the tool bar or you could try using an OLE object that has the lines and everything else you want.Either way you'll have to play with the placement of the text to get it in the right place.
