Move Layout Element Between Tabbed Pages

Hi -

I have an application which consists of one database containing a main form and 6 tabbed pages.

I would like to move one of the layout elements from one of the tabbed pages, to another.

Is there an easy way to do this?  I do not want to delete the element from one tabbed page and then add it to another, since the element is populated with data.

Thanks!

Drag the element off the tab page onto the form or canvas. Switch the visible tab page and drag it back.

Also, deleting an element does not delete the underlying data. You can delete the element, then add a new element to your form which is bound to the same field as the original element.

Silly me.  I kept trying to drag it directly from one tabbed page to the other.

The solution could not have been more simple, unless Sesame could have done it based on a "voice" command.  lol

Thanks Erika.  Form has already been redesigned.

How many more days till January 24th?  lol

Quite a few, unless some of your fellow Floridians get off their keesters and register.  Smiley
