Title:
Pageframe Pages Creeping Down...
My pageframe pages are creeping down and stepping on the pages inner controls... Any ideas anyone??? Is it a bug??? or what...
Below is my conversation with Bonnie with full explanation of whats going on...
Thanks, Stanley
The pageframe is setup and looks great and when another row(at the top) is added it starts cutting off the top of the displayed objects. The inner objects top property stays the same no matter how many rows of pages are at the top. It appears that the rows of pages at the top is moving in on the inner controls space.
so, you're saying that you have multiple rows of page tabs? Therefore overlaying them.
Yes, it starts our with the basic 4 pages which sits on 1 row, then a lookup to the officials table shows that there are 16 offices for that area, then I create 16 new pages each with the caption that matches the office.
that's a lot of pages
99 is the max.
The next record may have only 6 office, in which 6 new pages will be created.
and it only causes a problem when they start to "stack up"?
yes
when they stack up, the inner controls are being stepped on... The idea is when you get to a particular county-state, that all offices that match it will be displayed on a single form on the pageframe pages. We initally tried storing all this stuff in a single table with the pages dedicated to an office but quickly ran out of fields. I have no way of knowing how many offices there is so, it must be completely dynamic, without showing an office if we don't have any data to populate it. I cannot make a page invisible...
I guess you need to figure out how to solve the "creep" thing
yes
