    Errant Line on Form

    This is probably something stupid but for the life of me, I can't get rid of this line on my form. It appears to be in the form header section at bottom of the header. No matter what I do, I can't get rid of it. I didn't put it in there as far as I know. I know it's in the header section because it goes away when I turn the header off. But I can't select it and do not get a message about losing it when I turn the header off. The first image is of everything gone and header on. The 2nd image is everything still there. The 3rd image is of everything there but no header. There is currently no data in this continuous form, which is why there are no records. This is not a super complex form and I could easily recreate it but I want to understand what it might be for future reference. Thank you.

    I will say that this object forces my labels, which are in the header, to move over to accommodate it. even though the label "serial" appears all the way to the left in design mode, last photo.

    But where are the photos, also you'd better attach a sample and not the pictures.

    I say that you probably pasted pics into your post then saved - because they can't be seen. You cannot do that here.
    See How To Attach Files a the top of the forum page. That would be the case for pics or sample db's.

    Sorry about that. I obviously did that incorrectly. I'll figure out how to attach files and repost.

    think you would be better to upload a db with the form and relevant table. chances are the 'line' is a control with a height of 0

    I feel stupid now. Apparently it was an artifact of the record selector. I have record selector set to yes and without any records, it displays the top line of that section apparently. Sorry for that. Once I had records in there it became obvious.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
