MORE INFORMATION

Placing a Control on a Single Page

The page frame has to be active in order to place a control on a single page. To achieve this, once the page frame is on the form:
  1. Click the right mouse button on the page frame. The frame's shortcut menu is displayed.
  2. Select Edit from the menu. A hatched wide border is drawn around the page frame.
  3. Select the page you need to use, and drop a control on the page.
The Edit option from the right mouse click will also allow you to activate other containers such as option groups and command button groups.

Placing a Control On All Pages in a Page Frame

Here are two methods you can use:
  • Cut and paste the object. Then follow the above procedure to drop the control on every page. -or-

  • Place the control over the page frame. To do this, ensure that the page frame does not have a wide border. Then drag the control onto the page frame. The control is then contained in the form and not in a page of the page frame.
