Hi Shan,

You can use BOX command to draw horizontal and vertical lines apart from creating boexs by assigning 0(zero) to either WIDTH or HEIGHT.

To draw a horizontal line,

/: BOX XPOS '5' CM YPOS '5' CM WIDTH '5' CM HEIGHT '0' CM

To draw a vertical line,

/: BOX XPOS '5' CM YPOS '5' CM WIDTH '0' CM HEIGHT 50' CM

If you want to draw a BOX with the help of horizontal and vertical lines, it will take 4 statements to construct a BOX and to change a dimenisioality in BOX needs some changes to be done to the respective horizontal and vertical lines too.

So it not advisible to draw a BOX with the help of horizontal and vertical lines. Directly use a single BOX statement to construct a BOX.

Hi Shan,

The requirement is simple to achieve to the horizontal and vertical lines in any window or main window.

For the window: In the output options tab you can use the "BOX AND SHADING" to draw the box.

Here you can also select any line of your choice (top horizontal, botton horizontal, left vertical or right vertical).

For the main window: The addition would be the availability of "SELECT PATTERN" in the tab "TABLE".

Using this the grid can be drawn.

Hope this solves your query.

Reward Points if useful.

Thanks,
