Reports & Report designer
>I need to move some fields on the report 5mm (approximately down). The VFP 9 report designer has a grid which looks like 1cmx1cm (with half line visible). Would it be correct to assume that if I move an object by a grid section, it would be translated to 5mm (half of 1cm)?
Hi Dimitry.
If you want can double click on each field and in the General tab of the Field properties dialog you can see the control's position and width and just type in the exact placement you want.
Also, if want to change the grid or the units (inch or cm) that the report is being designed in you can use the Properties option from the Report menu option. From there the Ruler & Grid tab lets you control the units and the grid. If you need exact field positioning (e.g. to match a pre-printed form) you might want to turn "Snap to grid" off.
