The properties of control size and placement a

Left - Top - Width - Height

And the measurements are in twips (1440 twips to the inch)

So in code with you could use:

DoCmd.MoveSize 720, 1440, 1440, 360

I have a report in an application that prints a person's name on a line of
a
pre-printed certificate (the names printed are in the database). Because
people have different printers that grab the paper differently, that name
may
or may not sit nicely on the pre-printed line. I'd like to allow the user
to
be able to tweak the positioning of the name (and other elements on the
certificate...about 4 fields) but changing the top of text box figure via
a
form. These would normally be in increments of tenths of inches. I don't
need to have the user know the actual top of box location (e.g., 1.456")
but
rather to simply set it to "up" .1" or "down" whatever.

So I think my question is this: what is the name of the element that sets
the top of the control that I would want to change via the input form? I
think if I knew that I could design the actual form on my own (which might
be
a bit optimistic!!).

Thanks in advance.
