I currently have a number of layouts with 'bars' across the top with various options ie. New Record, Print Current Record tec (This is irrelevant!)

Does anyone know if it is possible to make this bar stay in this possition on the screen whilst scrolling down the rest of the page. Like a TOC would on a website?

2 windows. One with the button bar, the other with the remainder of the layout.

If the layout is set to "View as List", the header will stay at the top of the window along with the footer staying at the bottom. The body of the layout will scroll in between. The drawback to this is if you are viewing multiple records, you will also scroll through the records - which may cause some confusion. This can be remedied by creating a "Found Set" of the desired record and providing some navigation buttons for the user to go to next/previous records.
