    Strike-Out Text

    It appears to me that "strike out" is not a font (I wonder why?). Anyway, I
    have a report that has some detail lines that are not relevant. However I
    still want them to show. So I'd like to have them appear as strike-out text.

    I have only found one option so far. I put a horizontal line control in the
    detail section of the report directly over the existing controls. Then, in
    the Detail event, I turn the visible property on/off as needed.

    Is this the method that others use? Is there a better way?

    TIA,
    Fred Zuckerman

    Why not print them in a pale grey (assuming the stuff you really want is in
    Black)?

      Or make the fontsize smaller, or make it Italic, etc.
