HELP! I left another post, but here is the proble.

While working on a File Maker 5 file with a form that was about 9 pages long, I received a "You have performed an illegal operation..." message. File Maker closed down and when I opened the file up in Recovered form, I could not drag the Body tab in Layout mode to add additional pages to the layout. Can anyone tell me why not and how I can correct this problem? Thanks. You can contact me at [email protected] or [email protected]. Thanks and I need some help ASAP.

hi , hi, it is probably happening because there is a invisible object which blocking body part to be moved. so just grap all space above body part with ctl held down and see if there is any object selected right above the body line.

Also, if your body was already at about 9 pages you may have hit Filemaker's maximum layout size which is around 110 inches, if I recall correctly. If you need bigger, you may have to break it into 2 or more layouts and print twice.
