Hi,

Attached is the display of my form. I wanted the CUPBOARDNAME to be below the CUPBOARDNO but it did not happen.

Here is what I did

- Created the data block for the table with the above two columns
- When on the Layout Wizard selected TYPE as Canvas (also tried Stacked, Vertical) and all the other defaults.

I was not able to display the CUPBOARDNAME below the CUPBOARDNO. I even tried it manually but nothing helped

Can you help me out?

excuse me but the file is too large.

I will try to write it down, if possible please visualize.

Table - CUPBOARD
Fields - CUPBOARDNO
CUPBOARDNAME

When I try to use forms both are on the same line

CUPBOARDNO - CUPBOARDNAME -

I want it to be like this

CUPBOARDNO -
CUPBOARDNAME -

Image is too large? Did you try to save it as JPG or PNG? These are much smaller than BMPs.

As far as I understood your question, you should just drag-and-drop items you want to relocate (i.e. move 'cupboardname' below 'cupboardno').

Note that frame has "Update layout" property which is set to "Automatic" by default. Perhaps you'd want to set it to "Manual" because - once you adjust items in this frame, updating the layout (right-click on a frame, select "Update layout" from menu) will make a mess of it (i.e. all items will be automatically adjusted within the frame and it won't be as you'd like it to).

Thanks a lot.

I changed the Update Layout property and changed the screen manually and it is working fine
