My "Comment" textbox is place at the end of a page; a page break is placed
after it. Somehow when the a record does not have comment, the "Comment"
textbox is not displayed. How can I make it appear regardless it is filled
with text or is empty. Thanks!

Try using an IIF statement --
Expr1: IIF([TextBox] Is Null, Chr(13) & Chr(10), [TextBox])
You can add more Chr(13) & Chr(10) based on how many line spaces you want.

Put it in your query used to feed the report. It will be a calculated field.
You will need to edit your report to use the aliase you assign instead of
Expr1.
