Report design

First time here! I wanna have 2 text boxes that are besides each other in a report. First one will always one line of data but the other text box can have multiple lines and I cant know before because it depends on the data that the user enters. I wanna have my borders visible and that the top and bottom borders of the 2 textboxes are aligned together. I cant seem to make it work and lost a lot of time trying to do that, any suggestions?

Here's a little trick I found. 1. Turn off the borders. 2. In the 2 fields you want the same height add the word "Border" (no quotes). 3. Open the properties for the Detail section (or whatever section your controls are in). 4. Add the code shown to the Detail_Print event. See screenshot below.
