Dynamically Move Controls in Report
Hi;
Have a report that prints to a four column custom label. Some printers bleed the text over the columns' margins and the Controls need to be "Nudged" left or right. Is there a way to Dynamically Move a Control in a Report? Example: MSFT's rptsmp001.mdb gives an example of a popup form that appears when the report opens and the user can sort alphabetically by Customer Name, City, Etc. "On the Fly", (Dynamically). Searched for: dynamically move controls in a report AND dynamic controls in a report AND a few other combinations in MSFT's Access Support Center, Lebans.com, http://www.mvps.org/access and even used a search engine. Nothing Yet. Is there a way to allow a user to Dynamically Move a Control in a Report? Andy |

Dynamically Move Controls in Report
The calendar reports at http://www.invisibleinc.com/divFiles.cfm?divDivID=4
move controls all over the place based on time values stored in records. -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP "Andy" wrote in message ... Hi; Have a report that prints to a four column custom label.

Dynamically Move Controls in Report
Duane;
Thank You for Your reply. Did check the example at: http://www.invisibleinc.com/divFiles.cfm?divDivID=4 It isn't the answer for this particular need. What is needed is an "Input" box that would ask the user for an increment, preferrably in inches, to move a control "From Here To There". Similar to Dynamically sorting a report in MSFT's rptsmp001.mdb example. Andy "Duane Hookom" wrote in message ...

Add a column to the query your report is based on:
MoveInches:[Enter the Number of Inches] Add the text box for MoveInches to your report and use it in your code. -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP "Andy" wrote in message ...
