Hello,

My company has very specific spacing standard. for example, in Word, I can put 18pt between which is 1/4 of an inch. Does anyone know the spacing between each line in the Design view of a report (and Forms)?
Like I know in the movesize object in VBA 1440 twips = 1 inch. I need to know the distance between those lines (vertically and Horizontally)?

Thanks in advance for the help!

What lines? If you are talking about text across multiple lines in a control it is determined by the font used and font size.

Hi,
When you are in the Design View of a report or forms those little dots make horizontal lines or vertical line. So if I want 18pt between something how do I calculate that?

I've attached a photo name lines so you can see it.

Thank you

I've gotten the answer
in access 18pt = 360 twips = .25 inch so I can convert them with the ruler.

Thank you
