>How can I drag a field from the data environment onto a form and have its field name formatted with a different font and a colon placed at the end of the label? TIA
Rixon,
The label put with the field is controlled with the Field Mapping (on the Tools Options page found in the Tools Menu.
You can create a label class that has this in its Init event;
This.Caption = This.Caption + ":"
Then set the label class' FontName property to the font you want and you may also need to set teh FontSixe property as well.
This label class will not show the : in the designer but it will have the : when the form is run.
Once you have completed the label class and named and saved it in a class library you can go to the Tools-Options dialog, select the Field Mapping page. Scroll down until you find the Lable entry, click it and then click the Modify button. In the dialog put the name of your label class and the name and path to the class library.
