report text boxes
I've created a report using the report wizard. I would like to adjust the
placement of the text boxes in the page header and detail lines. Can you help? |

report text boxes
Anita,
Just open the report in design mode. Click on a control in the header, to select it, and mouse drag it to where you would like it to be. Also... while the control is highlighted, try... holding the Shift key down and pressing any arrow key or holding the Ctrl key down and pressing any of the arrow keys. You'll see how these key combinations can be used to move or size any control. -- hth Al Campagna Microsoft Access MVP 2007-2009 http://home.comcast.net/~cccsolutions/index.html "Find a job that you love... and you'll never work a day in your life."

report text boxes
Thanks for the tip Al but it seems that the text boxes are linked to each
other in the report header and when I move one they all want to go with it. I don't know how to move each box independently of the others in the page header. I'm using Access 2007. Thanks.

I just figured it out. I had to remove the layout style for the form. I can
now move the text boxes independently. Thanks for the help "Al Campagna" wrote: Anita, Just open the report in design mode.

Good deal...
That's the way to hang in there and work on the problem. Al "Anita" wrote in message ... I just figured it out. I had to remove the layout style for the form.
