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?

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.

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.
