A lines layer is used to draw lines between points on the map, one line connecting two points per each data record. Spatial location for each point may be specified in the same manner as for the Points Layer: either with two Longitude/Latitude pairs (one for each end of the line), or with two MapLocations used to request locations from an online service. The following points describe important aspects of the lines layer.

• Data access: as with the points layer, a lines layer allows to specify its own RecordSource, or uses the report's record source filtered by the current group.
• Visual Styles: styles are handled much in the same manner as with points layers, but instead of MarkerStyles, the LineStyles collection is used.
• Tracking: if the Track property is True, automatic centering and zooming includes all layer's lines.
