Overlapping controls in report

Capone

Hi experts!

I'm converting a report and have problem with overlapping controls in the header (not pictures).
The fields all look good in the layout but when I run the report it looks like the header margin pushes the controls to the left. :bug: (?)

It worked moments ago then I did something that made it look like the attached pictrue.
I would be glad if someone could give me input on this.

(I have darkened specific data in the picture)

Hi,
we have the same problems ... from time to time :?:
Most of the time this will happen when some controls where controled by the visibility property.

Try the following.
- Cut out this contols and insert a rectangle from the toolbox.
- Click on your rectangle and paste the controls

Now you can position your controls inside your rectangle as you want. I would recommend to use this little trick because after this it is much easier to copy from one layout to another. Just copy and paste the rectangle. No need to reposition all your little textboxes.

I've got this problem with one and the same report,
output from my computer is OK, output from my colleague ‘s pc is a mess.
What is the underlying reason for this? We both use SAVEASPDF.

edit: the rectangle tric did do the job

The power of rectangles!
Rectangle create a sort of aseptic area in which controls can't move.
