So you're not talking about an annotation, but about real content? In that case it's also simple to achieve what you need. If you know the coordinates, you can create a Rectangle object and add that to the document. If you don't know the coordinates, you can retrieve them in a cell event, and use the method PdfContentByte.rectangle(). Don't forget to call the fill() method, otherwise you'll only add the path of the rectangle without filling it. -- This answer is provided by 1T3XT BVBA http://www.1t3xt.com/ - http://www.1t3xt.info ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
