I selected all the fields to sliding up. I set the text to the left-top. I tried "all above" and "Only directly above". I tried to check and uncheck "Also reduce the size of the enclosing part". I changed the font and its size...

Sliding doesn't work!

BTW, I use Window2000, FM5.5, and HP LaserJet 4050.

I have searched in this Forum all over, but cannot find the answer.

Someone please help me! Thanks in advance!

try a "select all" on a copy of the layout, then set sliding. You might have missed an element.

still not work

Have you looked at the preview of the report? Does it look OK on screen and the actual printout not sliding?

As Mike alluded, sliding only works in Preview Mode. Browse/Find modes will not slide fields set as such.

I did look at it in preview mode and printed out as well.

What part is the element in?

Sliding and shrinking the enclosing part only works in some parts... primarily the parts that repeat in list-type reports. It will not shrink the header, nor will the header elements slide up, for example.

HTH.

All the objects are in body part. I created a table view layout and used a standard theme.

Table View?!?

I don't think sliding works in table view. Change your layout to list or form. Close up the body section so there is very little or no extra space between the bottom of the lowest field in the body section and the footer.

Not works in table!

Mike, thank you very much for telling me this!
