Hello Everyone,

I have been trying to move "only" the text boxes
(grouped), but the labels always follow. First, is it
possible to do (maybe trying for nothing), but if it is,
how can I do it?

Kindest thanks in advance!
Linda

You can move _one_ TextBox without moving its attached label by dragging
with your mouse on the larger black square in the upper left corner of the
TextBox when it has focus in design view. You cannot do this with multiple
TextBoxes selected at the same time.

You could select all of the attached labels and then press <Ctl-X> followed
by <Ctl-V>. This will cut and then paste the labels after which they will
no longer be attached to the TextBoxes. Then you can move them separately.
