Displaying boundaries for controls in a report

When reorganizing controls in the Design view, it is sometimes helpful to see how large all the controls are. That way you can easily check for overlapping controls and make sure that the spacing around controls is what you want.

StepsTo display control boundaries in a report:

  1. Select Design>Options from the menu bar.

    The Report Options dialog box displays.

  2. Select the Show Edges check box.

    InfoMaker displays the boundaries of each control in the report.

NoteBoundaries display only in the Design view The boundaries displayed for controls are for use only in the Design view. They do not display in a running report or in a printed report.
