There are some problems with pageframe and overhead. Besides, the form is already developed using buttons, so to switch at this point would be a complex process. The visual appearance is not that important, but our QA pointed to this problem and I was thinking about best way to resolve this issue with preferably minimum changes.

Besides, that's not my form. I offered my colleague to work together on this little problem, but he presently has more pressing issues on his plate and also said, he is going to take care of the problem himself. Nothing I can do for this then except sending him a reference to this thread <g>
