I would like to have your opinions on a design that we just did.

We have made a big commercial solution that is for sale today and some of the points we get from users are about the graphics on the layout. Since this was a point for us then we did the solution we decided to change to new graphics. We have around 35 db a couple of hundred layout so its kind of labor intense to change the graphics.

One of us come up with this brilliant id

As with the graphics - many commercial solutions nowadays work like this.

help files:

store your help in a different fm file, which may not be maximized and so can float above the other windows, or include a screenshot as backgroud.

The easiest x-platform solution, however, is HTML.

You could turn that in an Apple or Microsoft help file easily, or just use the browser to display the help. 8this way, you can use the open url script step to go to a specific page.

Bert,

Just make sure the users never have zero records found. Because then your graphics will not display.

I take it your relationship is a constant 1 to 1. If no records found then there is no 1 on this side of the relationship and all your graphics disappear. The users can get quite flummoxed when this happens and start to click all over the place. Not so good for you (or them)
