dynamic report (2000)

I am trying to modify a generic report on the fly. I have been successful in creating a group header, but I can't seem to create a textbox control using createreportcontrol. Here's my code:

Set ctlText = CreateReportControl("Response Report", acTextBox, acGroupLevel1Header, "", "State", 1, 1, 20, 10)

Your code will create an extremely small text box. Position and size are measured in twips; there are 20 twips to one point, or 1440 twips to one inch. So your text box is 1 point wide and 0.5 point high <img src=/S/grin.gif border=0 alt=grin width=15 height=15>

Ooooh, that explains things. I tried this again without specifying measurements and it worked beautifully. Thanks again Hans!
