Newbies harpo Posted February 2, 2005 Newbies Share Posted February 2, 2005 HI, I am using filemaker pro 6 and what i am working with is a database of ppl who i want to mail letters to, everyone has different sorts of addresses some are long or short. Some ppl have one line in there address & others require more space, what i want is to get rid of all the blank spaces so when i print out the letters there arent all these huge gaps, i really need a step by step here, because i tried the sliding objects and i cant seem to get it to reduce the blank spaces so its more compact, can anyone help me? i would be so greatful....Thanks!!!!

-Queue- Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Do a search for sliding. There are numerous related threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobWeaver Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Sliding generally does work quite well, but there are a few things that can occasionally cause problems. Make sure that ALL of the applicable items have been selected to shrink/slide. Often there will be some forgotten item on the layout that is preventing things from sliding. If you can't see anything, do a select all and see if some invisible things suddenly become highlighted. Also have a look off to the right side of the layout beyond the printable area. Things in this area will affect sliding as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
